NOTES
Additional Information:2016 - Concrete elevator with adjacent concrete building. Metal windows remain in some openings. Adjacent to rail corridor.

2020: Constructed of concrete block, the complex includes a series of elevators with a wooden operator’s building on top, an attached two-story utilitarian building with a shallow-gabled roof, and a grouping of metal-sided equipment sheds and machinery. The building is clad in stucco, with bays of multi-paned metal windows separated by shallow pilasters. First story windows are fixed, single-paned replacements, and appear to be boarded up. The north elevation of the building features two loading bay doors opening toward the rail yard that the complex borders. In poor condition, building appears to be in a state of partial demolition.
