Brach’s Candy Factory Site, Chicago: Guard Dog Warning Sign

A "Guard on Duty 24-Hour Video Security" and "Warning Guard Dogs on Premises" sign is affixed to a chain-link fence at the former Brach's Candy Factory site in Chicago. The factory, once a major employer and landmark, was closed in 2003 and subsequently demolished. The site is now a parking lot, but security measures like this sign indicate ongoing efforts to protect the property. The presence of such warnings speaks to the transition of industrial sites into new uses, often requiring different forms of security.
