The one story building from 1907 measured 150 x 200 with thermally insulated chambers (dry kilns) of 36 x 75. There were between 30 and 40 employees. In 1918 this was transformed into a three story building of the same size. At last, the Caswell-Runyan Company had 275,000 feet of floor space and was said to be the second largest wood working plant in Indiana. From huntingtoncounty: Caswell-Runyan Company, Inc. Is located at 1025 E. On the site of the original Caswell-Runyun Co. Which was established in Huntington in 1907 by J. Caswell and Winifred Runyan. Cedar chests were the principal product manufactured until the advent of radio cabinets and later television cabinets were added to the product line along with cedar chests.
