It once was a busy service station with cars lining up to get the cheapest gas in town but has since become a boarded-up eyesore. The Swifty gas station on Elida Road came down Tuesday. American Township put a demolition order on the structure. For the first time, the Allen County Land Bank is working under a township demo order to remove the structure and hopefully get the site ready for development in the future. The property is currently in the foreclosure process, and it has taken some time to get to demo day, which is making a difference.
