Albany Steel Inc.

Albany Steel is Albany's largest and oldest steel center. Its history dates back to 1809 and the establishment of Nazro and Hart. . . . In the early 1920s, F. Arthur Hunsforder worked as regional sales manager for Carnegie Steel Corporation. Hunsfroder was responsible for covering all of upstate New York, from Newburgh to the Canadian border, on both sides of the Hudson River. Due to the lack of bridges across the Hudson in the 1920s, Hunsforder usually only made sales calls on the eastern side of the river in the winter when he could drive across the ice. . . .
