Skyline: Redevelopment of East Side’s Friedrich complex continue

The East Side’s Friedrich complex that is industrial been abandoned for decades.

Going down East Commerce Street, it is impractical to skip the Friedrich that is dilapidated complex.

A hodgepodge of grey and sand-colored buildings dotted with broken windows and graffiti stretch across more than five acres, such as for instance a resting, shabby giant.

It’s been years since employees strolled the factory floors, but a “Friedrich Refrigerators” indication nevertheless sits atop among the structures. Rusty Friedrich air conditioners stand out for the structures’ edges.

“It’s been an eyesore for a while,” said Aubry Lewis, president of this Denver Heights Neighborhood Association.
