Caption/Description

A group of kids run across Woodlawn near 73rd St. across from the old Midwest Gulf State Factory. Only the floor remains of the Midwest Gulf State Company on S. Woodlawn. Like many other factories in the neighborhood, the Midwest was a solid employer for local residents for many years. The factory which manufactured tiles, paint and asphalt shuttered its doors in 1988.
