The vacant Burrows Avenue lot recently transformed after twenty seven years of neglect. A 1910 blaze destroyed the last building, including a hardware store and confectionery, while a lurid late 1904 incident near the rear platform became local lore. Recent work has removed debris and weeds, restoring the site’s ordinary appearance. Rainfall figures for 1937 and 1936 are listed by Searle Grain Co.
