Correction: This is a very early S.C.Co. photo and quite a few of these fellows appear in another group photo taken before the first Trestle was built in 1917. As the Standard Chemical Co. had no saw mill at that time, this building was probably not a lumber storage building, nor was the track used to transport lumber.
Upon reviewing several other photos of this era this building appears to have sat North of the Chemical Plant just east of the original water tower. The same photo shows a R.R. siding runing between this building and the Chemical plant.
The company cook house appearing in another photo was a corrugated steel sided building and thought to be in the same location, perhaps this is a early version of the cook house.
