Secret Garden At The Harbor

“All You Need”

A timely yet timeless message appeared this summer as a colorful mural at The Secret Garden, a lovely event venue at 209 West Main Street in Benton Harbor.

The transformation of 209 West Main into the Secret Garden – a multi-year project – began when the building’s roof collapsed onto Main Street in May of 2016, forcing immediate remediation.

The buildings that formerly occupied the Secret Garden’s outdoor courtyard were demolished in the spring of 2014; those buildings, along with 209 W. Main, at one time housed Ridge & Kramer Auto Parts.
