A couple of weeks ago Fred and I went to Two Rivers, WI to stay in a Frank Lloyd Wright house. I knew that the Hamilton company used to make their dryers there when they were in business. Now part of the factory is used as a Wood Type Museum and the rest of the complex is used by the Thermo Fisher Scientific Company.
We just happened to stumble upon the old dryer factory driving around the town... |

It's nice to see a factory re-purposed into something else. Most of the time if you look at where some of the great appliances of this country were made all you see is a parking lot, empty lot of apartment buildings! |
