This five story manufacturing building was originally built by the Aluminum Goods Manufacturing Company in 1929. In 1958, Plant #3 became the production location for the new Mirro-Craft welded aluminum runabout pleasure boat. Production of the Mirro-Craft runabout continued in Plant #3 until 1962 when production was moved to a new facility. The building was leased to several tenants for various manufacturing and warehousing purposes in the 1960s. Plant #3 was sold in 1981 to Berkedal and Shimek, a candy and tobacco distributor. Mirro Plant #3 is currently vacant. 1. Telephone interview - Berkedal and Shimek Wholesalers, July 15, 1986. |
