“Maine – McKinley - The McKinley Fish & Freezer Co., recently organized, with S.S. Nickerson, president, is building a modern fish freezing and cold storage plant, the latter to have storage space for about 10,000 barrels of fish. Two 30-ton Palson absorption refrigerating machines will be installed. The sharp freezer, with capacity for about 200 barrels of fish per day, will be located on the third floor, all of which it will occupy, and will be piped with 25,000 feet of 1¼-inch d.e. piping. The two lower floors will be cooled by air circulation from the sharp freezer. A small ice making system will also be added. Plant is to be ready for operation in May. 1911.” – “Ice and Refrigeration” Vol. 39, by Southern Ice Exchange, published by H.S. Rich & Co., p. 317, 1910. The building, always known simply as the "Cold Storage," became Sim Davis' boat shop, later was owned by the Hinckley Co., part of the Morris Yachts property in 2008. Perry Warrington Richardson (1839-1918) was an early President (1915) of the McKinley Fish & Freezer Co. His son, Herbert Perry Richardson (1863-1938) was the Treasurer.
