Compare these photos to the Images entry titled, "1879 Etchings—Leeds Foundry".
The captions below the photos are truncated. Full captions are given here.
Image 1:

Image 2:
The old loading door has been enlarged to make a loading dock for a semi-trailer, and the grade has been raised so the loading dock is at the right height.

Image 3:
The east side isn't as badly beat up or buried. |
