Paint industry

The Kirberger Paint Shop on The Island, 1865. The bridge crossed the millrace at the foot of Liberty Street. The clerestory building at left was built as a barrel works and stood until 1964, one of the last early mill buildings to be removed from Warren's first industrial district. In later years the Piso Company building stood on the Kirberger site. In 2004 a parking garage replaced the former A&P /Northwest Savings Bank building which followed the Piso structure.
