Keystone Warehouse Co. No. 2 "Keystone Warehouse Co." was a formal name for the PRR's freight warehouses. This warehouse does not appear on the later Sanborn maps, nor is it in the 1949 or 1954 Polk directories, so it must have been razed prior.
Witman-Schwarz Co. Downtown side, on the same siding but beyond Montgomery & Co., near where the Adams Express once was (1895 Sanborn map). As Fred Wertz pointed out, the later Sanborn indicates the address contributed to the parking lot where the gas station is.

The 1930 Polk City directory places (p. 660) Witman-Schwarz Corp. "in liquidation" at "615 Walnut Street".
Intern'l Harv. Co. of America Cameron Street side.

The 1930 Polk City directory places (p. 348) International Harvester at "813-815 Market Street". The later Sanborn maps clearly show this address served only by the Reading Railroad. However, served by the PRR a block to the northwest is a warehouse labeled "Farm Equip". May have been a second location.

Later Sanborn map of area. HARRIS tower is just out of view to upper right.
