Gougler Smoke Stack Closer to Demolition
Crews keep chewing away at old factory, expose base of smoke stack
In a little less than a month a landmark that has loomed large over Kent's landscape for almost a century will disappear forever.
Demolition crews working at the former C.L. Gougler and Machine Co. on Lake Street have a target date of April 25 for demolishing the old factory's massive smoke stack.
The former factory, which dates to around 1920, has been under demolition since December.
