Peoples Coal and Ice Company had five ice houses on the east side of Long Lake which first served the stockyards industry and later provided a busy commercial ice industry for some 60 years in New Brighton. The ice was stored in well-insulated ice houses and covered with sawdust, which helped to insulate the ice and keep the blocks from sticking together. When needed, the 20 x 32-inch blocks were loaded into railroad cars, which held about 140 blocks per car. Any left-over ice went toward filling many a villager's own icehouse.
