Jeanne & Star, glad to hear something from both of you. I remember the machine shop well, even though I was so young at the time. Mom even passed down a few keepsakes from the upstairs dwelling that I treasure. I'll never forget the climb up those stairs. It was kind of scary for us small ones. I pass by the shop regularly and personally believe the building has been maintained beautifully all these years and is still used for an active business. I'll let Ma know you both responded to this article.
