W O Hickok


I posted a picture of the Hickok water tower a couple of months ago. Since then I was back in the area and took the single shot of the entrance. The rest of the building looks old and, in places, neglected. The entrance though was very clean and inviting. I wondered if the place was even still operating or simply renting parking spaces to state workers. Well that is easy enough to figure out... start working in the middle of the street leading up to their warehouse dock and see how many trucks need to get by you. W O Hickok sits in the city of Harrisburg on Cumberland Street at 9th Street. They have been around since 1844 making high quality machines and machine parts. Who knew?
