Hercules Powder Co.
Hattiesburg, MS
The Hercules Powder Co. plant opened on this property in 1923. The company produced chemical products. This building served as the employee cafeteria, club room, and store. I believe it was built in the early 1940s. Ashland Inc. bought the property in 2009 and the plant closed later that year. For more, see this website. [map]
