A report on the condition of this survey mark has been submitted to NGS, along with the following recovery note:

Recovered in good condition. The description is accurate, but the disk is stamped RESET 1936 rather than RESET 1935.

Handheld GPS coordinates for the bench mark are 41 19 37.8(N) 075 47 52.4(W).

This benchmark was found as described except that the stamping indicates “Reset 1936” instead of “Reset 1935”. The disk is in good condition, and the description led directly to the site. In the third photo, Linden Street can be seen in front of the Valley Masonic Hall, while Berry Street runs along the Hall’s southwest edge.
