ENTRESS BRICK COMPANY The founder of the present business was John V. Entress, who was engaged in the manufacture of brick his entire life. He came to Pittsburgh in 1879 and opened a hand yard on Bedford Avenue and Moore Street, and after his death the works were moved to Webster Avenue above Kirkpatrick Street, where they had pur- chased a large tract of land and formed a company under the management of John F. Entress. Operating a brick plant, making sand faced brick, they continued at this site Entress Brick Co. Plant Pittsburgh, Pa. until 1906, when they ceased operation, owing to scarcity of clay. On November 10th, 1910, they formed the present company, with the following officers: John F. Entress, President; Jos. E. Entress, Vice President; Adam J. En- tress, Treasurer, and Henry C. Schmelz, Secretary, and have operated continuously since, having the largest capa- city in the city of Pittsburgh—60,000 brick daily. They manufacture Common, Rough Texture and Hol- low Brick, and are equipped with all modern up to date machinery used in the manufacture of brick.
