Goodrich Transit Dock Deal Under Scrutiny
A Maine corporation, the Goodrich Transit Co, is linked to a Chicago dock lease on River Street east of Rush Bridge. Critics say the $5,000 annual rent, renewed without bidding since 1900, undervalues a dock worth up to $100,000 yearly and benefits the Goodrich fleet linked to Duluth. The piece accuses the company of tax avoidance and asks for ownership details from A W Goodrich.
