Greenville, WI: Lost Feed Mill and 1887 Restaurant/C&NW Depot

Mill: (Satellite)
Grain: (Satellite, it is already torn down.)
Depot: (Satellite)

I wonder why such a new feed mill is being torn down. Has urban sprawl destroyed too much farming in the area to support it?

The railroad was the C&NW.

The depot doesn't have a typical depot design. It looks like it was a union or joint station, but I checked some maps and there was not a second railroad in this town.

They are restoring it for the 100th anniversary in 2026. I see Texaco, Marathon and Phillips 66 on the pump globes.

Until recently, it was just a shell of a building.
