Description

The boundary walls, railings, and gates of the former Blue Bird Toffee Factory date from the 1920s.

The vehicular entrances on the north and south sides feature the Blue Bird insignia on each gate. The central gates are positioned within a recessed pedestrian entrance that visually frames the main entrance to the Administration Building.
