GIW. Worked there from 79 to 85. It closed for the reasons many a lot of these old shops closed. We did it this way for 50 years and no reason to change now. Pay was good at the time. wok was hard and dirty. A lot of cast iron. I worked on thing that weighted 60 tons down to a few pounds. Many great people worked there. 
 Good luck with the new town homes.
