McGuin's Commercial and Residential Services

About McGuin's Commercial and Residential Services

Huntington keeps a limestone quarry turned public garden right in the middle of town — Sunken Gardens, dropped below street level and quiet under snow the way it stays quiet most of the winter regardless. McGuin's Commercial and Residential Services works the downtown blocks around that park first, clearing the parking lots and sidewalks that businesses depend on, before moving into the residential streets that spread out toward the reservoir and the roads to Andrews. It's a crew built to handle both halves of the town at once — a business lot needing wide, fast clearing and a driveway needing careful, single-pass work down to the pavement. Huntington's location where the Little River meets the Wabash means low, damp cold that turns fresh snow to ice fast, so salt goes down early and often along the routes into downtown. By midmorning, the walk down into Sunken Gardens is usually as clear as the sidewalk above it — a small, specific kind of thoroughness in a town that doesn't get much attention otherwise.
