A rusted metal staircase leads to a doorway at the Saskatchewan Pool B grain elevator in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Built in 1928, the concrete elevator was among the largest cooperative grain terminals on Lake Superior and handled prairie grain exports. It ceased operations after deregulation of Canada’s grain-handling system and now stands abandoned amid dense vegetation.
