Stop Me If You've Seen This One Before
Or better yet, don't. Because if you've been following along, you have, indeed, scene this one before. Or to be a bit more accurate, you've seen other parts of these "extensive works" before. This one is a little down the railroad tracks from the one you've seen before, but presumably they were all part of that same facility at some time.
The news here, if you can call it that, is that I'd swear the missing part of the sign says "Albany" and "New York," although I have to admit it could be bad memories of the bar exam influencing my intuition. I don't know why it would say that, of course, as it seems that they may have had offices in the Lumber Exchange downtown, but whatever. Maybe they just had a special affinity for the capitol of the Empire State.
Let's finish up by looking a up a bit (please shield you eyes from the sun):
