Pig Alley & Stockyards
Photo taken 2007 A favorite "shortcut" for those growing up in the 50's. View is taken from Reagan Park on SW end of town, looking slightly north and east. The railroad tracks ran East-West in this section.
The stock yards were just to the right of the white building. Alleyway behind bench is where the CB & Q train tracks ran.
The bench is located at the far NE corner of Reagan Park. Thanks to the efforts T.A.R.P., folks were able to purchase a bench in memory of a loved one. This bench is in memory or Terry Lee Adamson.
