About 1872, a view from the west bank of the Chenango Canal looking east showed the Sternberg, Hall and Company Sash and Blind Factory. The factory had produced window frames, or sashes, and blinds beginning in 1853, and its storage sheds extended back to Silver Street. The canal towpath was visible in front of the factory. During the twentieth century, the Berglas Company occupied the building from 1918 to 1977. On the far right of the photograph, the corner of a house appears that is thought to have been the original V.F.W. building when it was a private home.
