Just drove by the old ANCO plant on Royal Rd. earlier today and took these pictures.
Since the plant closed a couple years ago the parking lot has metamorphasized into an "urban forest". Sad to see this knowing that when I hired in over 25 years ago the company was 1,200 employees strong running on 3 shifts. It was at one time La Porte County's largest employer. They even brought three bus loads of mostly Macedonian workers from Lake County everyday. The upper north parking lot had to be added to accommodate the afternoon shift employees who had nowhere else to park when they came to work. Almost brings a tear to my eye. |
