124 – Champion Manufacturing Industries, Inc.
I suppose this could be up for debate. Is it “SCSI” or the “old champion buiding”? I’m not real familiar with either, but this place gets my vote for best roof-line in Peoria.
Champian Manufacturing Industries, Inc. lists their address as 6021 N. Galena Road and claim to be “one of the oldest producers of factory made galvandized furnace pipe, duct, and fittings.”
BURL is mostly correct in that it’s near Garner Ln and Rt 29. Technically, I was in the parking lot and my back was against another warehouse to get this angle.
So I wouldn’t forget the name and have to drive across town to find it, I took this photo:
I don’t get to this area of town too often, so if anyone would like to add or correct my facts, please do.

Well the sign outfront says SCSI i believe, but it’s at the corner of Gardner Lane and Route 29. The picture was taken from 29 near where the railroad tracks cross it.

SCSI sits right behind Champion. They do packaging for Caterpillar.
