Greasings:

That's correct, Marc. This tiny strip mall sits to the right, approx. a
quarter mile past the Ivory Ave. overpass on McKnight Rd.. There is a RR
crossing sign located at roadside at he Mall location that apparently
marks the spot where the Harmony Shortline trackage crossed McKnight out
bound from East St. 
Distance-wise, from the East St./McKnight Rd.split (near Venture) to the
landmark, is about 3/4 mile North. 

Re-tracing this unique piece of interurban history would surely make for
an interesting repeat of the former bus excursion.
