| TEXT | Owned by Robert Colgate & Co., are said to be the largest in the United States. They were established in 1845, and consist of twenty-one buildings, all of brick, with tin roofs, covering one entire block and half of another on the East River, in Brooklyn, with an extensive water-front, and unsurpassed advantages for loading and discharging the largest vessels. In the winter of 1866 eight of these buildings, with a large quantity of valuable machinery, were destroyed by fire, but these have since been rebuilt in the most substantial manner, with the best and newest improvements. The machinery is propelled by four engines, supplied by twelve boilers for purposes connected with the manufacturing departments. Messrs. Robert Colgate & Co. manufacture White Lead, Red Lead, Litharge and Linseed Oil, and the quality of their products is well and favorably known to dealers in all parts of the country. The office of the Company is 281 Pearl street, in the City of New York. |
