Goodbye Agway
AUBURN - In its heyday, before it was even called Agway, the feed plant off Columbus Street on the New York Central Railroad line was one of the largest facilities in New York for receiving and shipping grain.
Dozens of trucks and wagons during the corn and wheat harvest would form a line in front of the then-Grange League Federation Feed Store (GLF) that wound around the plant and down the street. Farmers waited overnight for their turn at the plant's large grain dryer.
On Thursday, the 75-year-old facility met the claw of a backhoe.

- Since last July, the Emmi family has struggled with the loss of their patriarch, Anthony. While his legacy lives on through the 300+ buildings he built around Auburn, it continues growing every day through the new homes built by Emmi Construction, now run by his son Louis. "We hurt very, very much," the Rev. Robert Belligotti said. "This causes us great pain in our hearts. But, we can begin to feel good about Anthony. He was a master builder indeed."
