Hecker & Co. located at 199, 201, and 203 Cherry Street in New York City, USA. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of American milling industry. At the heart of the scene stands the venerable windmill, a relic from 1776, its sails still proudly turning against the backdrop of the bustling city. This historic windmill, a testament to the early days of American agriculture, once played a crucial role in grinding corn for the community. Its enduring presence amidst the urban landscape serves as a reminder of the area's agricultural past. Surrounding the windmill, the modern mill of George V. Hecker & Co. rises, a symbol of progress and innovation. Constructed in 1876, the mill represents the industrial revolution and the advancements in milling technology.

The harmonious coexistence of the old and the new, the past and the present, invites us to reflect on the enduring nature of tradition and progress. The Croton Flour Mills of George V.
