That building was originally built as a small grain elevator, but the silos were removed in the 1940s and a wide variety of industrial businesses have been in there over the past 70 years. It currently has some vacancies as most of Lakehead Ironworks has relocated to a new facility.

Any particular grain elevator on your radar to draw in the future?

If not, would you consider eventually tackling the Oglivie's/Saskatchewan Wheat Pool #8 either as how it was or how it is?
