"Work on the new $12,000,000 small arms ammunition plant at Bircher and Goodfellow boulevards is progressing speedily. At present workmen are engaged in erecting a number of frame buildings, including tool sheds, dispensary, an office building and other service buildings before actual construction of the plant is started. The framework of the proposed office building for the contracting companies is shown. The wooden fence in the photograph is being set up along the Goodfellow side of the 133-acre tract."
