Other Information

Photo 2 is and enlarged inset view from Photo 3. The light contrast is agressive to show the Mail Pouch sign on the end of the barn.

The barn is clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1983). The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates of the barn. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on Photo 5 is the exact location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood.

Photo 4 is a view looking in from Westfield Rd. (IN-32) toward where the barn was located.

Note that the street addresss below will locate where the barn once stood; however, this street did not exist prior to the barn's removal and the site being cleared to make room for the new residential complex.
Where to find it
