Duluth’s Clyde Iron Company equipment was exclusively used to build the McDougall Terminal Warehouse. Construction was begun in late 1922. The first unit of the McDougall Terminal building was completed in 1923. It is named for Scotsman, inventor, patent holder, financier and shipbuilder, Capt. Alexander McDougall (1845-1923). At the time of Alexander McDougall’s death, his son Alexander Miller McDougall (born Duluth 1884 and called A. Miller McDougall) was president of the McDougall Terminal and Warehouse Company located at Ninth Avenue West and Railroad Street.
