By 2001 it was down to 1,100. Despite $76-million in modernizations, the facility began shutting down in 2001, ceasing completely in 2004. In 2006 it was the filming location for the destruction of Gotham General Hospital, in the film "The Dark Knight". The building that was destroyed was an office building built next door, with a bridge connecting the two structures. In the film, the actual factory is visible in the background. The structure has been completely demolished.  Media Coverage Brach's to shutter Chicago plant http://www.allbusi...ons/8557426-1.html Brach's factory to get new life http://www.chicago...ry-to-get-new-life  Future Plans As of 2008, a developer wants to demolish it for warehouses.  Stories They thought we were pimps Sat, Aug 25th, 2012 posted by BeowulfBrower Racism Sun, Jun 3rd, 2012 posted by Amnesiac77 Add your own story  Photo Galleries Who can get inside?
