History of Brooksbrae Brick Factory

The Brooksbrae Brick Factory's owner was William  J. Kelly, who died in 1908. Before the factory was set to full pace its owner died. On its hay day, the factory-made more than 1000 bricks per day, but everything was shuttered after the owner died. 

After that, the factory was discontinued as Kelly didn't make a proper will and it was in the hands of the facility's operation. The factory stood closed until there was a massive fire in 1915 due to the negligence of its caretaker. It was then when there was a nearby railway strike that's why the authority kept caretakers for this property. But this unfortunate accident happened. The property was fully destroyed and there was nothing left.
