Central Goldfields Shire mayor Chris Meddows-Taylor said it was exciting to see one of the most historically significant local buildings be given a new lease on life.
"The Maryborough Railway Station Activation Project is one of Council's Priority Projects and was also identified as a key project in both the Economic Development and Tourism and Events Strategies," he said.
"The overall vision is to see the station building become a hub of activity that nurtures local small businesses and creative enterprises while providing a welcoming entry point to visitors to the Central Goldfields Shire.
"We're hopeful that with further funding, we can develop a long-term master plan that will enable this heritage building to once again become a hive of activity and drive added visitation."
