Additional Property Attributes

The Site is currently operated as a commercial real estate building with three separate rental units. Historical documentation indicates that a gasoline filling station operated on the Site from at least 1924 through 1950. The Site formerly maintained at least four gasoline and/or fuel oil USTs and a service garage which included a vehicle lift. Historical environmental management practices, environmental regulatory requirements, and recordkeeping were not at today's standards during the history of operations. Additionally, no records pertaining to the removal of the USTs, fuel pumps, or vehicle lift could be located. A rail line has operated adjacent to the Site since at least 1891. Historical railroad operations are often impacted by contaminants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), metals, and creosote. In 2008, approximately 5 gallons of hydraulic fluid were released near the Site from a passing train.
