	+ + The main 1300 foot long building was erected in the first 9 months of 1942 along with a canal to Round Pond, and a channel dredged to Lake Ontario. Ships were built & delivered before the building was complete. The white building East of the main building was the medical dispensary & offices. A model of the tankers built there and in Florida by Odenbach is in the Sr Citizen room of the Greece rec center at Town Hall. + When the building was demolished the Town Supervisor disappeared the pieces that were given to the Historical Society. + + The Greece Historical Society is selling books written by a woman who dreamed half of what she wrote up from thin air.

- The person who is behind those allegations doesn't know much about 4800 Dewey, or it's uses over the time it has existed as an industrial site. DEC maps show the contamination to be at the North end of the plant, and indicate the contaminants are from a plating operation. No plating was done at the Yard during the Odenbach operations, and none was done while A.O. Smith operated the B-29 airframe building there either. - The plating operation was carried out by a tennant in the 1970s, a car bumper reconditioner, who ran a shop inthe north end of the main "building". This is easily verified thru tax records, but somebody seems intent to endrun the process, and leave the bill for cleanup on the taxpayers.	+ The person who is behind those allegations doesn't know much about 4800 Dewey, or its uses over the time it has existed as an industrial site.

- '''Air Force Plant 51''' (sometimes known as Odenbach Shipyard) is located at the northern end of ["Dewey Avenue"] near ["Lake Ontario"].

It is also reported to be one of Rochester's most polluted toxic waste sites. Access to most of the exterior is unencumbered but the interior is secure.
