(
Satellite, the elevator with the two marine legs.)
I'm guessing this elevator is now abandoned.

Jerry M Malloy posted Willowglen unloading at the American Elevator, Buffalo NY. 1980s? Don't recall when it was taken. Fred Bultman: 1982 |
Brian's comment confirms that it is no longer operational.

Brian R. Wroblewski commented on the above post Here's a shot of the Mauthe being unloaded there in 1993 when it was still open, & a second shot of the last ship to dock there from 2018 after it had closed. |
This view from the
Ohio Street Bridge confirms that I have identified the correct marine legs in the satellite image.
I was confused because I did not see the marine legs in this view.
And I didn't see them in this Sep 2018 view either. I finally determined that they are the brownish things to the right of the cement silos in these views.
In my hunt for the marine legs, I had fired up Google Earth to date the satellite image on Google Maps. It is Jun 2022, and it is the most recent image.
