Actually, these buildings still stand along Allen Road, just north of the Union Pacific spur built to connect (from the west) to the old Rock Island trackage in Pioneer Industrial Park. I recall visiting once as a kid in the early 70s when the barn (to the left) held pigs being raised in stalls...I don't think the buildings have any current use in farming any nearby ground. I'm not even sure if the home is currently occupied but the land would certainly have high commercial value given its location in today's market.
