Description: During the fur trade, this building housed John Jacob Astor's company store. For a time, the Mackinac State Historic Parks (http://www.mackinacparks.com) used this building as a memorial to post surgeon Dr. William Beaumont who wrote the book on the digestion system of the human body. Today, its a museum to the fur trade which made Mackinac Island the seat of the Northwest Territory.
