South Court Street at Smith Road, Medina OH 44256 looking NE - Medina Farmer's Exchange - AC & Y Railroad - Medina Supply

The building just north across the RR at yhe corner of Smith and Broadway was the C&L Radiator shop in the 1950s. They also repaired small engines and sharpened lawn mowers (both powered and "push." It was later expanded into the houses on the corner and became an outdoor equipment center. The grassy area in between there and the Farmers Exchange used to be the old Medina Coal Co. yard on the bank of Champion Creek.

Now the Medina Brewing Company and The Farmers Table Restaurant. The building was condemned late 2010's and restored by the early 2020's. Railroad still very active as the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway. Spur/siding torn out on the Farmers Exchange Side 2010.
