Do you know where this building stands today? It was originally Bluffton's Ex-Cell-O plant. There, its employees produced machines that created paper milk cartons.
Today it is Diamond Manufacturing and it stands at the corner of Jefferson Street and the County Line Road.
Leland Gerber, Bluffton photographer took this photo in 1956 when the plant was constructed. Several things to notice:
Several committee meetings are on the Bluffton council schedule this month. These follow:
Finance Committee - Wednesday, Dec. 4 at noon
Council Meeting – Monday, Dec. 9, at 7 p.m.
The Icon asks local organizations who sponsor a visit from Santa Claus this month to notify the Icon.
We will post all Santa visits in advance on the Icon that are open to the public. Send us the name of your organization or business with the date and time of the visit.
