I was surprised to find there's no thread for pictures of silos (aka Grain Elevators, Bulk Grain Storage). Share yours here!

See post 12 to compare the progress in destroying the older and once more impressive grain elevator in the background. They stripped the corrugation, tore down the balloon framed upper stories, but have stopped (or have been stopped) by the crib construction of the lower stories.

Some great shots here! The recent Water Towers thread had me ask myself if someone ever started a Silo thread. And lynnb did 🙂

Worth resurrecting... ...my meager contribution...

Minneapolis, MN was once considered the flour capital of the US, and many of the mills and silos remain throughout the city as landmarks.
