Artifacts...





























With the demolition phase under way, a limted number of conversation pieces are revealed. Perhaps the most noteworthy is the motor driven cable freight elevator used by the Ice Cream Company. There are no living oral accounts of the actual operation of this device, though it seems in many ways to be ready to assume a re-newed assignment. The motor, atop the elevator shaft has not seen the light of day for decades, but is in remarkably good condition. Alas, there is no place for this relic and it is removed - unceremoniously. The platform removal is accomplished in less than twenty minutes!
