Does anyone remember that Menands was the home and main offices of Montgomery Ward, the big mail-order company, back in the 30s and 40s? Just beyond the northern border of Albany. Nina

Nina, Maybe I'm wrong, but I remember those Montgomery Ward's catalogs as showing the home office in Chicago. Did they have a regional warehouse operation or something in Menands? I do seem to remember seeing a very large warehouse-type building near Albnay Rural Cemetery when I visited last year.
