The more I look at the city, the more I wonder about just how bad it's gotten. Many, many years ago I used to work at a place called Huron Forge at Alpine and Westfield. They made drop forged steel parts including chain links for conveyor chains for assembly lines and hose clamps for aviation fuel hoses among other things. It was a large plant that ran along the west side of Alpine. There was another forging plant across the street, but I don't remember their name. Looks like it may be gone too. Towards the lower left of the picture, you can see two round objects. Those are oil storage tanks at what used to be called Usher Oil, site of a massive five alarm fire in the late 70's.
