Farther north... do my old eyes deceive me or has part of the Stone Container Corp. building (converted from part of the Packard Plant) disappeared? Also the overpass for Harper Avenue that once led off of Mt. Elliott over I-94 appears now gone!!!


Hello Leeedy:
Blink again and take a look at a somewhat better image of the northern part of the site. I believe you'll see the Stone Container Corp. building is the same as you saw it at the 2013 PAC National meet when you gave your tour. Also, the overpass is still in place crossing north over I-94.


Thanks much. Ahhhh... okay, my photo wasn't displaying that far north. I can see it now. BUT... something is still different with the intersection of Mt. Elliott and I-94 service road. Not like it used to be.

Also looks like at least one, possibly two gas stations have disappeared from the intersection of Mt. Elliott and East Grand Blvd. This was once a very, very busy intersection-day or night- and it is mind-boggling to see it empty now. If my dad was alive today he'd never believe this! All of the zillions of little businesses gone here and especially along Harper Avenue. And all those salaries gone too. Again, heartbreaking.
