Fire destroys Farmstead office as ex-workers recall years
A two hour blaze at the Farmstead plant office building drew ex workers to watch as flames raged from the third floor. Fire Chief Laverne Bagley said water and roof operations kept crews outside while a roof hose team fought the fire. Bystanders recalled harsh treatment and poor memories of the plant era amid a bankruptcy sale bid by Central States Warehousing. The city cites a 268000 lien for unpaid water and sewer bills as walls and timber smolder.
