7301 LAKE STREET

This was apparently land owned by the railroad, as of 1950 (CM & St. P).

A building was built in 1954.  From at least 1957 to 1964 it was the Andrac Chemical Co.  The company made wood preservative compounds.  In 1964 it was said to be owned by record distributor Amos Heilicher with two employees.  Early tax records say it was owned by Bert Strom.

 

Also noted is the American Additive Co., owned by C.L. Andrus.

The building was wrecked in November 1975. 

Vacant land now belongs to neighbor Flame Metals.


1954
