04 04 25 / 1920 Carr Fastener Company - 2

The Carr Fastener Company of Cambridge Massachusetts opened this Canadian factory in 1920.

 

The company made snap fasteners to hold the side curtains of early open top automobiles, as time went on manufacturing included fasteners for clothing as well as radio tube pins and sockets.

 

The company moved to Stoney Creek Ontario in the 1960's and continued on as a subsidiary of TRW until that plant closed in the mid 1990's.

 

This building now serves as a automobile service facility.
