Sleeves rolled up, good. Neck tie, good for the boss...
Thinking that's a research or QC lab based on the scale on the bench, guys better not get those ties anywhere near those rollers! Reminds me a lot of the QC lab I used to work in, the windows looked out onto the production floor.

They had it finished by 1989.
Really!
Well those Rollers would have to turn Inwards where they would'nt Question what Went in there.I can't see any Warning Signs or Emergency Shutdown Buttons "ESDs" If you had an operator who got a bit Scatterbrained especially after a "Broken Hearted Love Affair" Yuck!!! Tere would have been some Nasty Incidents "Safety Is Number One !
We used to have a Ball Band factory here (in Mishawaka, IN). My mom used to go down to their Wholesale" shop and get all 4 of us boys Red Ball Jets, high top tennis shoes. They sold the "defective" shoes there for next to nothing.

Later it became Uniroyal and they made all kinds of very stinky rubber products like car floor mats, shoe soles, tire compounds etc. In 2000 it was imploded as the start of a beautification project to include a new, modern park, small shops and a now brewery in honor of both Ball Band and the old Camm Shellinger brewery just West of the factory. I know what a lot of the workers from Ball Band did on break!

If you stand in just the right place at this memorial, it places the sculpture of the factory exactly where it stood before it's demolition. It's actually a pretty cool idea!. Uniroyal expanded the factory to the other side of the main street bridge. (seen on left side of the memorial). Of course, they were also singled out as the largest polluter of the St Joe river! Couldn't eat fish out of there for 20 years! now you can pull 30 lb steelhead out of there thanks to installation of fish ladders and a newer hatchery up river.
I think they helped Tom out with it!Quote:

A memorial plaque is appropriate; for a place that housed and fed so many people.Quote:

If I was there right now, I'd still look as much as possible.
Truly immense, well over 1/4 mile long, it languished 20 years or more, when radial tires became prevalent, impractical to alter production lines suitably.
To me, best example of inanimate object that flat radiates countless positive emotions, beyond any other.
Not even Pyramids? Eiffel Tower? Washington Monument? Union Station? Golden Gate Bridge?
No.
It's reinforcing, whatever succession of property owners; immense building and related property, all the untold costs, saw fit to await a worthy owner with a plan to preserve that irreplaceable glory of a landmark.

Update; just read that second groundbreaking, the reuse version, had a distinguished guest and implements.
Gretchen Schleicher Davis of Pasadena, CA, the eldest daughter of Adolph Schleicher, wielded the same silver shovel and pick that she used at the groundbreaking 61 years ago, nearly to the day, when the original Samson Tire and Rubber Company plant broke ground, 1929.
Elsewhere, right now morons are destroying significant artifacts. . .
