Just before I started working for Bob breast Buick. It took over an old Drive-In in Lynn and that was the new body shop but the old body shop was a building like that and you drove the cars up to the second floor up a big-ass ramp Auto body on 6 or 8 inch timber floors
Ohhhhhhhh….. that makes my belly button tingle๐๐๐๐คฏ๐คฏ๐คฏ๐๐๐ now is when you wish you had hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy all that stuff and resell it, And keep the really cool stuff ๐
Just think of what's ahead to clear those buildings! Even the unusable residue would have been worth so much in their day. As a pack rat tinkerer I would have to avert my eyes as it went into a land fill ๐
I used to work in one of these. The kids now days don't know what hard work was! I ran cards, draw-ins(roving frame) and spinning frames. Hauled "cans" with a tugger too. It was at least 115 degrees in these mills at all times. About a million ways to die and a thousand fast rotating machinesand flywheels that would grab and pull you in if you turned your back on them.
Likely to become what else? A trendy apartment building!

Was this place a stocking warehouse or did they actually manufacture things there?

hahaha isn't that the hand chair you have in your garage?
My kind of exploration, lol
if there was a lot of tubes – like for radios, tv's that would be good.
that Vornado fan is worth about $6-700
So that's where the "hand" chair came from!
another example of good ol American manufacturing gone to shit!!
