Vonster: “The old Kelly Ornamental Iron place off Creek Rd.”

Really? I just thought it was just an eccentric guy living in Pottstown that used an old boxcar as a storage shed. Huh..

Kelley Ornamental Iron, as Google maps call it, or Kelley Ironworks as their website says, is currently located at 3307 W. Farmington Rd, near where the railroad tracks cross. The boxcar in the photo is in Pottstown on W. Pottstown Rd, across the railroad tracks from Southport Rd.

    Well shoot, I was hoping it was abondoned, so I could squat there if I move back to Peoria.

    It’s my kinda place!
