Carport business grows: Hilario Torres, owner of Tri-State Carports, stands in the main room of the old Bridewell detention facility where he plans to begin assembling carports. The new facility will allow Tri-State to expand production and possibly add more workers.
Tri-State Carports, which opened at 41st and Roleke Drive in Bethany 22 years ago, plans to expand local operations after the recent purchase of the former Bridewell detention center east of the current location.
