     History
    All I can tell you about this place is it used to be a grocery store. No other historical information was found on the Web. It looks like it was partially destroyed by fire many years ago and then again more recently. The roof in the front of the main building has collapsed and is filled with all sorts of debris from the fire. In other places the roof is completely gone. I also explored the buildings attached to it. It is unknown what function if any they served or if they were even associated with the grocery store. Two of them were connected by doors. One part looks a lot like vehicle service bays or a fire station but there is no plumbing one would expect for a car or truck wash and electrical outlets where you would not expect to find them.

    You view the pictures and decide. I was just scouting around when I ran across this site and its advanced state of decay and turn of the century architecture made me go in for a closer look and some pics.
