These are Conner - this building has always been a manufacturing facility, in the 1920's, it manufactured cars, and rumors have it they may be buried under the land in which the facility sits, then in the late 50's, another company took over and they produced hard battery casings for use in NAM, then possible in early 90's, it went to something else. The neighbrohood is not the greatest area in town, so that's probably why the factory hasn't done so well.

Here's a flickr for ref: http://www.flickr.co...ana/4580707421/

Any info would be great. CD

Edit: I was $1 million off. but that is ALOT of money for such a building, but the land is worth more than the building which was built back in the 50's.]]> Fri, 27 Aug 2010 22:26:55 +0000 http://thewallshaveteeth.net/topic/2416-the-diner/ http://thewallshaveteeth.net/topic/2415-peters-cartridge-co/
*The only building I was able to get into to explore, as the site was still in use.*



*The canal that runs behind the SW side of the building, and underneath the site.*



*The 3 P's monogrammed into the dual towers & the top of the building.*



*Peter's Cartridge no trespassing notices along with company name engraved into the concrete ontop of the garage.*

The Tocks Island Dam Project was proposed after the 1955 flood which caused several deaths and immeasurable damage to the Delaware River basin. The need for flood control brought the issue to the national level, and in 1965 a proposal was made to Congress for the construction of the dam. The Tocks Island National Recreation Area was to be established around the lake, which would offer recreation activities such as hunting, hiking, fishing, and boating. In addition to flood control and recreation, the dam could be used to generate hydroelectric power, and, more significantly, the water stored in the lake would be pumped to supply water to the cities of New York and Philadelphia. The United States government began seizing land from residents that lay within the boundaries approved for this unprecedented recreation area. Residents were offered a fraction of the price their land was worth and, if they refused the monetary compensation, their property was condemned. Today, there are few existing structures from the original town of Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania, and there are few remaining from Bushkill, Pennsylvania and other surrounding areas. On the New Jersey side, much of the area of Pahaquarry Township was taken over, leaving the community with no more than a few dozen residents. On July 2, 1997, Pahaquarry Township, whose population had dwindled to fewer than a dozen people, was dissolved and incorporated into Hardwick Township. The project eventually collapsed after protesters whose land had been acquired raised the issue of unfair acquisition of land to the American people. Two such individuals, Nancy Shukaitis and Ruth Jones (who currently owns Kittatinny Canoes), formed a group called the Delaware Valley Conservation Association. Along with other supporters, they attended government hearings and meetings of the United States Army Corps of Engineers. Another individual who was instrumental in bringing national attention to the issue was Justice William O. Douglas, who fell in love with the area after visiting Sunfish Pond with his wife. Financial problems also contributed to the demise of the project. With the United States funding the Vietnam War, the allocation of $60 million-$70 million needed to fund such a large scale project was not feasible. Finally, the geology of the area to build the earthen dam was too unstable. The bedrock could not support what would be the largest dam project east of the Mississippi River. In 1992, the project was reviewed again and rejected with the provision that it would be revisited ten years later. In 2002, after extensive research, the Tocks Island Dam Project was officially de-authorized. Today, the land is preserved by the National Park Service as the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.

*From the trail you can barely see the house, while still in Ohio, I was using Google Maps to view the area around the Peterson's Cartridge Co., & found this house tucked away in the woods.*



*This pic should scare the Jeeper's out of ya, bees having a party at the backside of the house.*



*The back door was so inviting, wait - what back door?*



*Hallway that was sagging a bit, actually, none of the floors were in good shape at all*



*Possible kitchen, floor was sagging & still had its cabinet*



*Open window in the house*




I just checked again, and the site is back up, (for now)

As always, here is the link to it all - I believe 18 pics out of 25.
