Looking northwest at the Lehigh Valley passenger station in Ithaca, NY. The passenger cars can be seen to the left. From the 1970s until the 1990s, this station and the passenger cars served as a restaurant called "The Station Restaurant". Today, the station is now a bank, the Chemung Canal Trust Company.

where petes store is use to be a lumber yard called Robinson and Carpenters They use to have there lumber brought in by boxcar. The siding was about where the gas pumps are today. It would get very hot in those cars in the summer. The lumber was not sorted by size so you had to sort it on the truck then load it in the bins all by hand.
