[2][3] The town saw the construction of several businesses along its Main Street (now Maryland Route 667) corridor: a movie house, grocery store, blacksmith shop, and pharmacy, including a primary school, and several churches.

Marion Station also possessed the first hospital ever built in Somerset County,[4] and the town grew to the point where it needed its own police force.

It was reopened in the early 2000s as the new Accohannock Indian Museum, containing various relics from the time when Marion Station was a bustling city.

Additionally, Marion Station is home to a very large organic vegetable farm, which was started by sociologists from New Jersey.

The Lankford House, Pomfret Plantation, Quindocqua United Methodist Church, Watkins Point Farm, and Williams' Conquest are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

[6] The building for Marion Sarah Peyton and Elementary School is located on MD 667: Hudson Corner Road, and once served grades 3–5 for the southern half of Somerset County.

It is a recently added school opened in 2020 and located on the corner of Hollands Crossing and Crisfield Marion Road.

Maryland Route 667 is the main road of the community, housing most of the important facilities in years past and today, such as the volunteer fire department, the train station, the school, and the post office.

The Big Annemessex River passes by the town, with a small local arm known as Coulbourne's Creek.

The activity in Marion was centered around this area before the economic boom brought about by the Eastern Shore Railroad and the shift to strawberry farming.
