Big building was the Alexander Lumber Co. at the east end of Astoria. The Quonset hut was an implement dealer and at one time a Skelly gas station. Route 24 runs east-west on the south side of the buildings. The lumber yard building is now an auto salvage business.

Alexander Lumber, 1045 East U. S. Route 24, Astoria, Illinois. View looks north. The signs advertise Jim Martin Paints. Today, appears to be a salvage yard.
