Crossing Tower, Providence Road

There is an old Crossing Tower near Providence Road in Scranton.  

The track used to cut across the road at a diagonal.   

This is near the Scranton Farmers Market.  The area around the Farmers Market is all cinders.   I am wondering if this was a rail yard or Coal Breaker at some time in the past.  

This tower had a wooden, peaked roof put on it a few years back.   I am not sure of its function.   There is an electric meter on it.  

Maybe it is used for the Traffic Signals.
