Postcard of the New York Central depot in Mishawaka.
Frank Rizzo: pretty much located in the back parking lot of the hospital.
Seth Lakin: One of about 20 depots built from the same plans on the NYC lines west of Buffalo. There were size variations made for the expected volume of traffic at the depot. The depots in Sturgis and White Pigeon Michigan and Tipton and Lafayette Indiana still standing along with a couple in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

It looks like the depot was on the north side of the tracks across from the east end of the freight house
1958/59 South Bend East Quad @ 24,000

This confirms the locations.
