A CN through freight passes the former N. Superior St. grade crossing and approaches the N. Appleton St. grade crossing as it heads northeast via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 24 Aug. '18. A pair of tall buildings loom in the background at left. The nearest and shorter one is AT&T Communications & Network Services, 221 W. Washington St. The taller one is the former Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) building, 222 W. College Ave., erected in 1952. Since AAL’s successor vacated the building, it has become home to multiple tenants, and it has been bestowed with the unimaginative moniker of The 222 Building. There used to be six tracks here, only the main line remains. |
