Lumber Company, now American Truck & Fleet Repair.

North side of Ford Road west of Hix; this group of buildings were built sometime in the late 60's on the site of a former farm. Appears that it was built as a lumber yard and at the time of this photo it was home to Newburg Lumber Company, today it is still American Truck & Fleet Repair as mixdenny added. The front office building at the street was razed and rebuilt some time in the 90's when the tenant was Centimark.

Of note: construction of the overpass of this section of Ford Road began in 1983 and was completed shortly before this photo was taken, the cars seen on the street here are actually on the overpass and not Frontage Rd.
