Additional Property Attributes

The property was constructed in the late 1880s/early 1890s and originally contained Rockford Manufacturing Co., a manufacturer of agricultural implements. The original structures remain today and have been added onto several times. By the 1920s, ELCO Tool and Screw Corp had taken control of the property and operated it for hardware manufacturing, including electro-plating. By the 1960s, the building had changed hands and became a industrial incubator space. By 2015, the structure had become vacant and in needs of many critical repairs, which never occurred once the property had been acquired by the Winnebago County Tax Trustee on delinquent property taxes. The City completed demolition of the building.

Through the Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START) contract 68HE0519D0005 Task Order - Task Order Line-Item Number F0107-0001EA105, a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment will be performed in Spring 2023. The City intends to work with R1 to market the property for redevelopment and perform additional assessment and cleanup activities to help evaluate risk potential and environmental liabilities that remain.
