Description

Lewis Ellsworth took this photograph in 2003 of the train tracks leading into Jackson Paper Manufacturing Company, a recycle-based operation that opened in 1995. Previously the property was home to Mead Corporation Sylva Division. Mead opened a plant producing paper for cardboard boxes just east of downtown Sylva in 1928. They expanded in 1955 and closed in 1974 due to environmental concerns. Ellsworth took a photograph from the same location in 1949.
