This gem is East of Peru Kansas
One can see a very small portion
of this great plant from hwy 166
it is private property
with no trespassing
I know the owner and obtained permission

Located in Chicago Ill. the Sprawling Field Museum
Should be of particular interest to Residents of Peru Kansas
and the people of Chautauqua County.

The exhibit is a roofing tile. The descriptive card is inscribed
"The finest Tile in the world.
Made in Peru Kansas.

The factory is nothing but a bunch of old brick structures
that have fallen into total dis-repair over the years.
There are trees growing taller up thru that are
taller than the building themselves

It all started around 1904 when oil was discovered
resulting and major oils boom.
according then postmaster Helena Anderson
Sometime in the early 1920's,
Spanish -Mission type architecture became popular.

A company out of Chicago bought the
plant and made nothing but roofing tile to meet the growing demand.

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Independence

10/10 Excellent

"Staff super kind and friendly "

Super 8 by Wyndham Independence KS

10/10 Excellent

"I only have 1 maybe 2 complaints, 1 I was laying in bed and I heard keys rattling at the door, I assumed it was my husband, it was not. It was a male staff member and he opened the door without knocking, poked his head into the room. He did leave immediately but it was disturbing and kind of scared me. I could tell he was there to clean the room and I guess maybe that was my fault for not having the tag on the door? Also I wish you had bigger towels. "
