Don’t know, interviewed there back in mid 80s. But I think a whirlpool plant that was there either shut down or relocated to the SW side of Chicago 6-10 years ago
Only thing I know about Benton Harbor is that it’s where all those Heathkits I used to build came from - haven’t seen them advertised in years - surprised they may have lasted as long as the ‘80’s - guess they’re gone now, like the rest of my youth.....
