I am sure that a retired "steel man" on this list will have more information about this company. However, after checking my own sources & a with couple of very knowledgeable people, here is what I can share....... The Cromwell Steel Co. started building its plant on the east side of Lorain (behind the location of the new Post Office Building) in 1916. It was just south of Colorado Ave. Cromwell Gardens (which is a low income housing project) got its name from being built on the Cromwell Steel land, after WW II. This steel plant made a gray iron type for the WW I war effort. After the WWI, it closed and tried to open again in 1922. Then the plant was not very successful, & closed. A map shows that the building was torn down in 1926. When you look at a current map of the city of Lorain, look in the area that is southwest of Root Rd. and Colorado Ave. -- Nancy M.
