The tracks by the mill with the spur line still in place. They still go gradually upward as do the same tracks in the vintage photo below. Notice the semi blocking traffic on Lexington Road.

The vintage photo from basicly the same location, as above, of the earlier feed mill structure. The mill featured Ful-O-Pep Feeds and B & B Feeds.

This photo tries to show the mill from the other side and from the other end. Not so a good photo, with reflected light coming off the glass from the room light. Notice the New York Central RR cars on the elevated tracks.
