fricky Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Although the it was an overcast and rainy day, I enjoyed the tour of the old Kinsey facility. I appreciate Dave taking a day off from his current job to show us around. I have attached a few photographs. Some views have been posted previously. I was impressed by the size of the campus and the size and number of bonded warehouses. The warehouses were brick and unlike those in Kentucky were close together with little ventilation. Apparently, vandals had started a fire on the upper level of one of the deserted warehouses. Firefighters knocked a hole in the wall. I took a photograph of the hole which shows details concerning the wall construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an amazing operation when I worked there. We had 600 people there then and the lawns were as beautiful as any Mansion would have been. Mr Neuman Expected that! he loved the place and would come up once a month in his Bently to look it over! He would some times stop at the Mantaince shop in the Bottle house and walk in from the dock and say Hi!Dave ZOld Hickory America's Most Magnificent Bourbon----------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono, if you ever get to Limerick, PA, you've got to have Dave take you on the tour!-Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
