The Grove Valve building was a center of heavy industrial activity since 1939, most recently housing Grove Valve and Steel until 1996. Grove Gate Valve was a manufacturer of large engineering valves used for industrial purposes. The Grove Valve building, located at 1400 - 65th Street, will be remade as the EmeryTech Center with over 230,000 square feet of office space. The development is being anchored by the corporate offices and warehouse space for Andronico's Markets, Inc., a high-quality Bay Area supermarket chain, which will occupy approximately one-third of the building. The historic facade of masonry base and glass and steel sash window walls will be largely retained. While the departure of Grove Valve's 100 jobs was a tremendous loss for the City, the new EmeryTech Center is expected to house approximately 600 jobs. Grove has three manufacturing facilities around the world. The Grove valve line is manufactured under the Dresser Flow Control name. I personally work for the Canadian manuafacturing arm of Dresser Flow Control. Listed below are the Grove manufacturing facilities complete with contact information:
