The structure itself is a former Lewiston home to the coal that fueled steamers to keep the waterfront alive. In 1998, the restaurant opened its doors and 30 years later Richard Hastings handed the keys over to his son Alan, an environmentalist. Alan created and sought out ways to reuse and recycle items creating tables, seating, and countertops using recycled church pews, using ‘greenware’ - plant-based cups, lids, and utensils. But it does not stop there, in 2010 Alana upcycled a retired train caboose from 1890, preserving a piece of historical significance which is now the location for Silo’s Ice Cream Caboose!
