Commander Building in Stillwater, Minnesota. The elevator, built in 1898 by the Woodward Elevator Company was connected to the flour mill building six years later, located on Main Street and Nelson. An overhead spout connected the buildings, both operated by the Minnesota Flour Mill Company until 1908.
This flour mill was located at the foot of South Twelfth Avenue West or 1212 West Railroad Street. Founded about 1900, it went out of business in 1958. The mill's offices were in the downtown Board of Trade building.
