Kimber moves next door.

I work in Yonkers, NY. Kimber's factory, in the old section of Yonkers, is about 4 miles from my office. I was called in there once to work with them on a new take-down tool (which never went into production). The outside of the building looked to be 100 years old; the inside looked well-lit and busy with lots of workers and lots of CNC machines humming along.

I take my dog to work with me every day and I walk him several times a day. I usually walk south from our building. But yesterday he wanted to walk north so we did that. Less than 1/4 mile from our office I saw a sign on the driveway to a large abandoned factory that said: In case of emergency call Kimber (then there was a phone number).

I drove by there this morning on the way to work and drove up the driveway (you cannot see the building until you drive up that driveway). There is a new 10' tall fence and some construction vehicles on the grounds.

It looks like Kimber is moving next door. I don't know if they are going to move the existing factory (in two small buildings) or use this as an extension factory. I assume that they will move. This building was built about 1960 - 1970 and is larger than the two old buildings they currently occupy.

Not really news worthy, but interesting to me (and my dog).

Thanks you for the post.
