Likely having had five to seven elevators at one time, they are now all gone, leaving only this seed cleaning plant as a landmark the traveler might spot from a distance. A standard wood crib structure, it is aluminum clad and has several steel tanks surrounding it for extra storage. The painted signs on the building indicate that it just may have been built in 1963. Our travels indicate that the '60s were a popular time for the construction of seed cleaning plants, at least in Alberta.

Given that this seed cleaning plant is a full half block from the railway tracks, we can safely assume that it is not a repurposed grain elevator.
Year built or dedicated as indicated on the structure or plaque: 1963
