Wendell August Forge will sell historic property


GROVE CITY, PA.

Wendell August Forge announced Wednesday that it plans to sell its landmark Grove City property, which until last year had stood since 1932 and was on the National Register of Historic Places.

“This is a bittersweet goodbye for all of us at Wendell August,” said Will Knecht, president. “It is the site of many wonderful memories and serves as the foundation of where we are as a company today.”

The Wendell August headquarters burned to the ground on March 6, 2010. The company has worked out of temporary spaces since and plans to rebuild near the Grove City Outlets.

The 1.97-acre property, at 620 Madison Ave., is listed for $124,900.

Wendell August makes personalized metal gifts.

Anyone interested in purchasing the property should contact Georgie Hodge of Grove City Realty at 724-458-5858.
