The Koppers Co. They were a wood preserving company making mostly crossties for railroads. It had been here since the late 1920s. It is completely gone. Most of the buildings were gone by the early 2000s. The red pin marks the former location of all this.

Here is an article about the company: http://orv.stparchive.com/Archive/ORV...
