Description: |
The right-hand building of the Chesterton china factory in the above engraving still stands on Broadway between Ninth and Eleventh Streets, and is now occupied by a number of small retail businesses. The American China Co., and later the Fraunfelter China Co., operated in the former glass factory from 1919 to 1925. Both companies produced heavy porcelain dinnerware for hotels, restaurants, and railroads. |
