 Overview
 Description
The single largest location I've explored to date, a complete factory that used to make storage equipment - racks, shelves, and the like. Complete with manufacturing areas, office space, shipping / receiving and storage areas. Pretty well situated right on the edge of Lancaster, close enough to the hospital that the constant ambulance sirens will give you a start the first few times. Bordered on one side by South Ewing Street, a pretty busy road, one side by a residential area where people's backyards are right there, one side by a massive warehouse that's up for lease and, when we were there, being worked on, and the other side by railroad tracks with other warehouses across the tracks. I won't tell you where to get in at, but don't even try approaching from anywhere but the back side along the railroad tracks.

     History
    The Frick-Gallagher Manufacturing Co. makes storage equipment. That's about it. They make shelves. Awesome. The company isn't doing too hot, they have an abandoned factory in Wellston, Ohio too. I have it in the UEDB as well, here: http://www.uer.ca/...ow.asp?locid=27085
