Some shots from the former Sanders factory property in Highland Park.

Here is the first Sanders factory that was built in Highland Park
Pollmar, Ropes and Lundy were the architects. 1940 or ’41 was the year of design if I recall.
Marty – Morley Candy owns Sanders now, this factory has been closed for a number of years.
Nailhed – and if this might be a Kahn, might the sculptural reliefs be by Parducci ?
Ric – the plaque just referred to the Sanders business. I have a photo someplace, Ill look for that.
if i remember, there were blueprints to this place sitting around in the Broderick Twr. i wanna say this was an Albert Kahn blg…?
So, these guys have gone out-of-biz ? Sad, importing of foodstuffs has not gotten out of hand, hopefully it won’t! Wonder why it closed, looks like the kind of place where you could raise a whole family if employed there. Near me, there was an industrial-sized bakery for decades..now a vacant lot. I heard the employees were stealing the place blind.
Do you know what bronze plaque once said?
