1. Feiszli, Barbara West Collection - A color photograph of the Cargo Warehouse (owned by the Buyer’s Fair) near the southeast corner of Liberty and Toledo Streets c 1990. Built in 1850 it was organically part of the Nicholas / George Fischer Lumber Company and sat along the eastern river bank just south of the Kishman Fish Company. It was later moved south - across the railroad tracks just south and to the east of the location in the photograph where it was used as a warehouse by Fischer Lumber. When a dispute between the lumber company over ownership of the land on which the building then sat took place in the early part of the 20th century George Fischer moved the building to the site in the picture. - by Rich Tarrant
