The property was renovated in 2017 by the Dan and Kelly Oswalt family. For over 60 years, the corner of West Prairie Street and Boulevard served the village of Vicksburg as a car dealership and a landmark. After the dealership moved to a new location, the building lay vacant for several years, Dan Oswalt went from thinking “someone should do something to that old building” to “we should do something.”  Dan, Kelly and there three daughters renovated the building, along with many friends. For several years all three had involvement in the wedding venue. Today, their oldest, Megan, operates the venue. More recently in the spring of 2025, Joe Stoddard and Todd Neuman, founders of Latitude 42, entered a partnership with the Oswalt family, creating Station 42.

Station 42 is an all inclusive venue with the ability to host both intimate gatherings as well as large weddings and events. The main space, R&R Weddings and Events, has an incredible full service bar, ready rooms, included decor, a quaint chapel with a capacity of 250, and The Boulevard Room, large enough for 300 of your favorite people.
