Falcon Opens New Production Facility in Milwaukee, WI
Falcon Industrial is excited to announce the move of our Bayside, Wisconsin operations to a new facility in Riverworks Center, located in Milwaukee’s Harambee neighborhood. Falcon is beginning to transition operations from our; 500 W Brown Deer, Bayside, Wisconsin location, to our new facility at 3745-75 N. Richards Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212.
The 3745 N Richards Street location holds strong roots in Milwaukee’s manufacturing dating back to the 1920’s. Frank W. Rosenberg started F. Rosenberg Elevator Company in 1905. By the late 1910’s the company was flourishing and had begun a new construction in 1920 – 1921, of what would be their new home on Richards Street. By 1922, F. Rosenberg Elevator had made the move and production was up and running their new facility on Richards Street.
From History of Milwaukee City and County. (1922), Chicago: The S.J. Clarke Publishing Co., Vol.3, pp.580-582.
F. Rosenberg Elevator Company had went through an acquisition in 1956, and in 1961 had moved from Richards Street to a new facility on Teutonia Avenue. Following F. Rosenberg’s move, American Motors Corporation (AMC) moved their Richards Street; “Machine Shop & Erecting” and “Knocked Down Shipping”, operations to the facility. In 1981, Reinke and Schomann moved their operations into the Richards Street Facility and operated there until 2013.
Keeping with Milwaukee’s strong historical background in manufacturing, Falcon Industrial is excited to carry-on our States tradition of strong quality manufacturing roots!
