Former Cockshutt Moulded Aircraft Factory

The Cockshutt Aircraft Division, formed early in the Second World War, supplied critical military aircraft parts. This building was specially constructed to produce airplane fuselages. Since the war, this building has continued to house manufacturing operations. During Doors Open, join hosts Vince Capotorto (the current owner) and the Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre and view interpretive displays and historical artifacts.
