When monumented in 1950 this elevator was owned by Llewellyn and Llewellyn Grain Growers. By 1965 the name had changed to the J. H. Llewellyn Warehouse Company. By 2008 the elevator had come under the control of Central Washington Grain Growers. This must necessarily mean it is presently in the stable of elevators operated by HighLine Grain Growers, Inc. In July of 2013, Highline Grain was formed, consisting of the former Central Washington Grain Growers, Inc., AgVentures LLC, Davenport Union Warehouse Co., & Almira Farmers Warehouse Co. Ltd.
The C&GS description states that the "center" was the point of intersection. We assume the headhouse, with the Christmas Tree atop, to be the "center" as the tanks to the north and east were likely added later.
