The wife and I decided to extend the Memorial Day holiday break a little bit with a few days off this week. Since Wednesday was a beautiful day, we headed out on Route 2 to Vacationland for a pic-a-nic at East Harbor State Park.
On the way out there, I got off the highway to get a quick then-and-now shot of the old Steuk's barn. It's pretty sad to see this. I'm sure many of you who read this blog stopped at Steuk's over the years, or at least saw the complex from Route 2, with its iconic apple.
I don't know what the story is as to why the business closed in 1995, but the whole property has been for sale for a long time.
The 'then' shot is from the www.cardcow.com vintage postcard website. Here's my 'now' shot from Wednesday (below).
