The last grain elevator in Lake Lenore was demolished on Tuesday.

"Progress I guess they call it ... seems said to me," Glenda Lee Stuckel posted to Facebook, along with photos of the demolition.

Tracey Shelton, director of corporate communications with Richardson International Limited, said the elevator was demolished because it hadn't been used for many years.

The company is instead directing that business through its facility in Dixon, she said.

Richardson is building a new office there, and has recently upgraded its shipping and receiving capabilities, she said.
