| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | Few branches of the industries of Newark occupy a more leading or prominent position than that of clothing, and one of the oldest in the trade is the popular and extensive house of McGregor & Co., who form the subject of this review. The store is one of the finest in the business and is a double brick and iron building of four stories, 40x90 feet in extent, and is thoroughly fitted and e(|uipped, and all utilized for the business. The first floor is used as the sale and stock room, the second for the cutting and custom room, the third for manufacturing, and the fourth as a store-room. One of the fullest stocks is carried of the very best quality of goods in gentlemen's clothing made by the house, together with a full line of piece goods, cloths and cassimeres. The trade done is one of the largest in its line and takes a wide range over the State of New Jersey. Six cutters are employed and all the goods are manufactured by the house, a large number of hands being employed outside in the making up of the garments. The firm members are John McGregor, a native of Scotland, who emigrated to America in 1840, and Austin McGregor, his son, a native of Newark. These gentlemen have spent the best part of their lives at the trade and are among the mo.st progressive men of the city. |
