A Tragic fire gutted the Caleco Foundery in Cody Wyoming Wednesday morning. The fire destroyed the building.
This was a facility where they created bronze art. According to the Cody Fire Department, the fire destroyed the metal frame structure. “The metal melted from the extreme heat from the fire.” The Caleco Foundry has been around for at least 50 years in Cody. It was a staple of the community and was internationally known for the bronze statues they created.
Sources tell the Wyoming News reporter that the fire started on Tuesday night and burned into Wednesday.
Buck Hall who owned the business since 1978 stated that the building was “a 100% loss.” 50 years of hard work just “GONE!.”
Only one more Foundry is in existence in Wyoming and that is located in Lander Wyoming
