About This Group

To highlight the old prairie sentinels of North America and finding out the history as best we can. The older the better, dilapidated or still standing firm, renovated, moved to another location and/or used for another purpose.
No excessive post-development of images please. Some photoshop to enhance the natural lighting, tones and textures is okay but no collages or composite images.
No huge modern concrete elevators will be accepted

We are looking for the old structures made of wood.

We would like to have a brief history included if possible. Searching the name/location of the old elevator online will bring up some sites that can give you this info. If you can’t find any information, please state that you at least tried.

You may upload 2 images/per day

A location of where the elevator was photographed is required for acceptance to the group.
