Reference is to Longman & Martinez Paint Factory. The existing building on Roebling between North 9th and North 10th was constructed in 1907, replacing an earlier factory for the firm which dated to the 1850s to 1880s. The older factory was taken down when Roebling Street was widened. L&M acquired the midblock properties to the west, and constructed the present building partially on those lots and partially on the lots they had occupied previously.
