This photo from many decades ago shows several local individuals in front of a Bridgeport Fire Department Truck. Two of those shown are Police Chief John Diamond, far, left, and Billy McCartney, third from left. If you know who else is in the photograph, please comment below.

Today, there is a a retail strip and beautifully paved parking lot on this former industrial site in Clarksburg. Not too long ago, as this 2002 photo shows, the former Adamston Flat Glass Plant site was vacant and in need of attention. In recent years, it was redeveloped.
