This wood elevator has tin covering, which has been pressed into ripples. Built in the 1920's, the elevator stands alongside the tracks on the east side of town. It has a side grain dump that has been covered. It once held 6 bins of lapped construction with tie rods, but the building has been gutted.
This old elevator with a full headhouse stands just east of the newer concrete elevator, at the juncture of 8th Street ad Washington. Elevator
