Lyons Garage is a building in Grand Forks, North Dakota that was built in 1929 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1] The rectangular building was built as an expansion of an adjacent Lyons Auto Supply company building that had been built in 1912.[3] The 1912 building is not included in the National Register listing.[1][3]

The Lyons Garage is one of two "outstanding" buildings, both one story and both "done in polychrome brick of yellow and red", that "represent the Tudor Revival",[2] within the Downtown Grand Forks area whose historic resources were surveyed in 1981; the Northern Pacific Depot and Freight House is the other.[2]

There has been reported paranormal activity in the building, including the apparition of small man in overalls carrying an old oil can.
