I drove by this everyday on my way to school for my entire elementary and high school years. It’s the old coal bins, in operation until they were condemned and torn down to build a hardware store. It’s kind of like those bulk-food dispensers in stores. You drive your truck under the chute you want, pull the big rope and coal pours out into your truck bed. Then they weigh your car to see how much coal you took. A little piece of Fairbanks gone!
