I know that my father-in -law just retired from the US Steel Gary Works earlier this year, and that the operation is still going. Not sure about what became of any of the others. A friend of mine's dad worked for another NW Indiana company that went under last year, then was restarted, but I can't recall the name of the company right now. I will try to find out, but it won't be until at least Thursday.
Good Luck, Morpar

Can anyone give me an accurate list of what steel mills and other steel related industries are still active in the Chicago/ NW Indiana area since the big shake up in the steel industry a couple of years ago?
