Bergner & Engel Brewing Co., Stable

Otto C. Wolf executed this 150-horse stable for Bergner and Engel in 1894.

 

Bergner and Engel have commenced the bldg. of a new stable for 200 horses which will occupy a space of 110 X 153 feet in the SE c. of 31st & Jefferson. The structure is to be built of brick, with granite trimmings, two stories in height, and is to be entirely of iron interior construction.

 

The plans, prepared by Otto C. Wolf, show a decided advance in the usual methods of stable construction and arrangement, and contain separate apartments for harness shop, blanket drying rooms, light repair shop, print shop, and many other modern innovations, as well as a new arrangement of stalls, methods of feeding, and other labor saving devices.(The Western Brewer May 1893)
