Goodrich Tire factory, Akron Ohio


 The Goodrich Tire plant in Akron Ohio about 1940. View is, I believe looking north with Main St. in the center (kinking right) and Falor St. in front of the buildings. Charles Goodrich started the factory in 1870 and the company vacated the premises in 1987. The power plant (center left) was slated to be torn down in 2022.

 Over the years, how many tens of thousands of workers made a living there?
