Additional commentary.
1. Unable to locate
I walked around this entire area, and also looked all over google maps, and was unable to locate the marker. The new building was built in 2007 and encompasses the whole city block. Marker could have been destroyed. I would be curious what year Pat took the photo.

2. Date Of Photo
I took the photo on October 13, 2015 - so after the building was done.

Editor's response. Thank you. I have put this date on photo No. 1. Did you take a photo showing the marker in its surroundings?
