One of the most unique buildings in downtown Harbor Springs sits at the corner of Main and Judd Streets — the Shay Hexagon House. Called the “Shay House,” “Hexagon House,” “Octagon House,” “E. Shay Home” and other monikers since its construction in 1892, the home is listed on the National Register of Historic Place and is covered inside and out in panels of stamped steel. The designer and architect of the home was Ephraim Shay, noted inventor of the Shay geared locomotive and an important figure in Harbor Springs history.

The museum explores Ephraim Shay’s work and life as well as features hands-on exhibits. Learn more about the museum in our blog: A Visit to the Ephraim Shay Museum
