Panhandle Gains Property for Station Expansion
The deed transferring Karl Stewart residence at the southeast corner of Fourth and Canal streets to the Panhandle railroad company places the Panhandle in control of key property. Plans include enlarging the station, removing the east approach to Fourth street, and situating the R M A building on the corner. The former home will house the maintenance of way offices while awaiting construction of train sheds to relieve stormy weather chaos and protect passengers from rain and wind.
