Many of those towns have one or two large manufacturers that drive the whole economy.

Tenant will use appliances and fixtures in accordance with manufacturer instructions.DRAIN STOPPAGES/PLUMBING.As of the date of this Agreement, Landlord warrants that the dwelling’s sewage drains are in good working order and that they will accept the normal household waste for which they were designed.

So I started asked other businesses in our industry and other part manufactures and they are all saying that they are really slow as well.

Mostly by negotiating a good purchase, doing good due diligence, and having good timing (which involves some luck and some skill - I believe good luck is also manufactured from persistency, consistency, and hard work.Good wholesalers do direct marketing and find/create deals not available to the public.

I'm not as concerned about the cracker plants themselves (although that will bring jobs and housing demand) - but I'm looking at the bigger picture of petrochemical and plastics manufacturing, particularly up the 376 corridor towards New Castle/Sharon.

@Neil Evangelista, while Nest is expensive, there are manufacturers who sell at Home Depot and Lowes between $100-$150 and you can sometimes find it cheaper online.I also like the emergence of smart devices like smart vents from Keen, which was featured on SharkTank and sold at Lowes, which integrate with Nest.

I have priced both Lowe’s and HD as comparison and HD seems to have better lower prices though they don’t carry the same manufactured items too much.

Also I have heard Old Brooklyn has a lot of future develpment and renovation plans in the future (Mason's Ice Cream Factory/Warehouse and new manufacturing company), have you heard any thing that would make it look more appealing long term?

Most meth contamination these days comes from using not from manufacturing.
