"Neat "ruins" of an era past. I really enjoyed the signage posted along the way that told some of the history of the area and the workers that one called this place home."
"Relaxing stroll with historic info. Links up to I&M Trail Decent amount of parking, clean trail easy walking."
"Worth an hour of touring. This was a big plant in its day. The footprint left is fascinating."

"Very interesting little piece of Joliet history. There are signs along the path to explain what building used to stand in the place of the ruins. Neat stuff."
