It looks like it was halfway between Jacob and Douglas Streets. 1941 aerial photo,

It is a good thing I could get an old aerial photo because I would have guessed one of the rectangles on the east side of Douglas Street.

The grain elevator is a museum of technologies. In addition to a square elevator, it has tiled silos and bolted-steel silos.
