Like Tupelo’s Day-Brite plant, here’s another 1950s Mississippi industry that’s still going strong. I just googled the name and up popped a large manufacturing complex on the north side of Louisville. I can’t tell if this Art Moderne building shown in the 1951 Manufacturers Record is still there, but take a look at those groovy canopies that now front the campus!

Preservation in Mississippi 
Yes, the plant pictured is still extant, buried behind the front additions and a refacading. You can see it better on the Bing bird’s eye view that everything is still there.
