The Manitowoc paper doesn't allow open access to its archives anymore, but the last I checked demoltion plans for the downtown building are on hold. (To meet fire code regulations, the owner just had to spend a lot of money installing a sprinkler system.) -MrBula, 04:41, 15 September 2006

It's cool, then. I didn't realize that things had changed in regard to demolition.JakeApple 14:23, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

A thought, can we re-work that part to note that the plans are now on hold? Something like:

"In December of 2005, Mirro's landmark plant and former headquarters in downtown Manitowoc was purchased by Kenneth Lemberger, the owner of a local construction company. He announced plans to tear down what is considered to be the city's most visible reminder of the company's history. However, those plans are now on hold."

I just think the fate of this building is worth noting, since it's been such a major part of downtown Manitowoc for so long, and was kind of the "face of the company." JakeApple 14:53, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Good idea. I added that in. -MrBula 17:03, 17 September 2006.

Thanks! :o) -JakeApple 03:41, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
