Re: I-475"
That little paper company was called Mcloy Stationary and Paper....For such a little place, it did pretty good box car business for many years. I-475 is actually built right where the ROW turned from west to southwest near the current intersection of Longway Blvd., and Chevez Drive. There used to be a Tastee Bread Bakery downtown next to the old freight yard along the river. They did some good business at one time too. Tracks were long gone prior to I-475 construction, as Jimnorthwood pointed out.
