The building we call home is an incredible space. Located in what used to be the boiler room for Northern Pump Company, our space has stories to be told about it and made within her walls.The Northern Pump Company manufactured water pumps for fire fighting from 1929 to 1941, when the United States was forced to enter WW2. Within just months of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the facility was able to shift operations entirely and the first navy ship gun left the facility. This facility grew and became known as one of the most Efficient and Excellent manufacturers through the war. The Star Tribune once described the facility as a “production miracle” for what the men and women in that facility were doing. In fact, the E painted on our north stack is an award given by the military for “Excellence in Production”. If a facility was able to maintain its excellence in production for 6 months, it received an accompanying star to go with it.
