former Coca-Cola bottling plant
Tell City, IN
This former Coca-Cola bottling plant was built in the 1800s as Schweitzer Hall for the Swiss Colonization Society and used for temporary housing. The building was later used to bottle beer for the Tell City Brewery. It was later used to bottle soda water. I believe it began producing Coca-Cola in the late 1920s. Coca-Cola moved across the street (see below) in 1949. I believe it still used this building for storage. This building was refurbished around 2008. The roof on the top was replaced. The sign was either completely refurbished or recreated. For more, see this website. [map]
