Snohomish Depot is a new 9,700-square-foot commercial mixed-use building that replicates a 19th century English train depot.

The building combines glazed masonry, hand-molded brick and elaborate parapet structures to emulate historical elements of a turn-of-the-century stop for the British National Railway.

Starting at the base of the building, the dark wainscot brick uses a bullnose piece to transition to the brown and orange field masonry. All bricks were laid in an English bond pattern to give the look of double-wythe walls.
