About forty years ago the Krupps began to
build houses for their employees and founded the
first of the colonies which have since sprung
up around the works. This first colony, which
now bears the name of West End, Immediately

Schederhof, the colony next in size, which has
a population of four thousand. A quarter of
mile from there, and beyond another colony
called NOrdhOf, is Baumhof. The road to this
colony is through the open country, and the
houses are of a rural character. Each house
has besides its garden. extra bit of land,
where goats. pigs poultry may be kept. This
colony is inhabited for the most part by over

This colony contains the wide street called
Hohenzollern, the Broadway OF the city, and in
the houses which stand on either side the higher

a business concern it never ceased to go
forward and in many instances to lead its COM
