Crumbling Highland Waiting Station Torn Down
The Highland waiting station, a landmark in Waterloo, is leveled after the Highland Improvement Association fails to secure repairs. The streetcar company cites low Highland patronage and costs rise to $500. only two brick pillars and park landscaping remain as ruins amid vines and a cracked red tin roof. In a separate note, Marschal Chang Tao-lin allocates $11,000 in the United States for canned goods cigarets and towels for soldiers on the Honan front.
