He is actually going to owens in this video. Which is the glass bottle plant u are talking about. It did use to hold the record for the largest glass factory in the world at one point.

[@nam3rcy565]

⁠@@abovethelanesyou actually were heading to owens in this video. You must have been delivering them something. Owens is the glass factory that they are mentioning in this comment. The biggest glass factory in the world at one point. It is still open. Opened in the 1880s maybe even earlier.

Certainly isn't green there. Safe travels and God bless. That little town seems to bunched up. The town looked like it was bunched into 3or4 blocks. Hi Levi. 🙏🙏🐕🇺🇸🇺🇸👋

My grandfather John Glenn worked at Owens glass, Uncle Jim Glenn worked at Thatcher's Glass. With i lived there it had 16th, in late 70s. It turned to shit, heroin and meth. The glass factory shut down in the late 80s, now it makes air bags, and not of those. It's a dive. Breaks my heart. M. IL
