State St. in Litchfield, Illinois. The factory opened in 1917 to produce shoes for the St. Louis-based Brown Shoe Company. Prominent St. Louis architect Albert B. Groves designed the factory, which was one of twelve he designed for the company. The factory became Litchfield's second-largest industry and brought the community prosperity through the Great Depression; in addition, its employees formed a civic organization that created a public park on company property. The factory closed in 1967; it was later used by cabinet manufacturer Adenca.[2] The factory was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 2006.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2009a}} 2. ^{{cite web|last=Bivens|first=Matthew Scott|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Brown Shoe Company Factory|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/164577.pdf|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=2014-04-28|date=2006-06-11}} External links
