Demolition of this large structure began as early as 2007. It was first home to Stapleton-Denton Hardware & Groceries, a general merchandise store. More recently it housed the Stapleton Garment Factory and its predecessor, the Master Trouser Corporation.
My cousin and mother worked there when it was a garment factory.
I would love to own one of those old bricks for my collection. I hope they don’t take them to a landfill.
