By 1944, the Warner Hosiery Mill was at 460, and Garland Woodcraft had offices at 462. By 1950, the Jay Hosiery Mill was at 460, and the Cramo Hosiery Mill at 462.

By 1955, Carolina Ron-del Co. Awnings was at 458, and the Southern Sales Agency at 460. In 1960, Southern Sales Agency had the whole building.
