Standard Asbestos Mfg. Co. plant at Chicago, Illinois

The Standard Asbestos Mfg. Co. of Chicago "purchased a new factory in Chicago and will eventually consolidate all its operations at the new location," Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported in December 1947.2 The journal reported in November 1949 that on October 15th the company "moved into its new plant at 860 West Evergreen Avenue, Chicago 22, Ill., the offices being located in the same building."1

According to the same 1949 item, at the new plant the company would "continue the manufacture of the Standard lines of Air Cell, Wool Felt and Sponge Felt Insulations, Asbestos Paper and Deadening Felts."1 In August 1956, Asbestos ran a photograph of the company's Chicago plant on its first page; the caption does not give the street address.3
