Atikokan Home Hardware Store and the Gardner-Denver Drill

Gardner-Denver Drill is to the right of the entrance to the Home Hardware Store. The Gardner Governor Company merged with the Denver Rock Drill Company in 1927, creating one of the best-run manufacturers of rock drilling equipment for the mining industry with portable air compressors for the construction industry.

The Atikokan High School mural is located on the side of the building, facing Gorrie Street. Pictured in the lower right corner are the students who painted the mural and their teacher, Heather Schmutzer. The mural was restored in 2014.
