I grew up in Michigan City. There is a grain elevator (if that is what it is) just like this one along the railroad tracks that run from Michigan through to Illinois. I wonder how long ago they were functional. xx, Carol
There was a grain elevator very similar to this in the town near where I grew up. I could just barely see it in the distance on a clear day from my upstairs bedroom window when I was a little girl. At Christmastime there was a huge star that they placed on top that could be seen for miles. Your photo conjured up some sweet memories!
I have actually never seen a farm structure like this!
ReplyDeleteIt is very tall and towering!
ReplyDeleteGosto de ver esta arquitectura industrial, aproveito para desejar a continuação de uma boa semana.

ReplyDeleteEither place, it is neat to see.
ReplyDeleteExactly as they were pictured in my school books. It has a kind of battered beauty that I like.
ReplyDeleteA fine picture of this classic looking elevator.
ReplyDeleteThat sure is a neat looking old grain elevator.
