Quoted from toyotaboy:jeez! they are literally a block away from Stern. Have 2 pinball companies ever been this close?

The real Bally and Williams/United were even closer. Front door to front door of each factory/headquarters in the '60's & '70's via streets was 3 blocks. Main factories could touch even closer. Heck, Bally's Bingo plant, which was a separate building, was right across the street from Williams.
In this recent photo, the Animal Eye Care building on the right is the old Bally Bingo plant (which later became the Midway TouchMaster plant when Williams/WMS bought the Bally Amusement game businesses). The Williams Pinball & United bowler plant is the red brick building on the left.
