The building at 301 W.Mississippi across Pine St. from the main mill building looks to have been part of the mill complex, probably an area for feed storage.

The main flour mill building from a slightly different angle. Muscatine can be made out painted above the 4th story windows, while Bennett's Mills can be vaguely deciphered above the 3rd story windows. This is true for the front and also the back of the main mill structure.
