CROWN OF SHOES
Visits to an old shoe distributor in June and July 2014. Company distributed shoes from this location for many years, but despite the all crazy sales from Berkeley, the east coast actually makes up the bulk of their demand so they moved operations and closed facility ~8 yrs ago. However, the company was growing so corp office moved back 3 months ago into the admin bldg, but the warehouse is still up for sale/lease.
