The stone is located near the ground, behind a FedEx package box and a pair of regular blue USPS mailboxes that are northeast of the main entrance. The stone is not at the extreme corner of the present building, but at the corner of the central part of the building, which might have been the original structure.
The corner stone has many names on it, plus the year.
