Bankruptcy Judge Says He Will Approve Sale of Columbus Castings

A federal bankruptcy judge has indicated he will approve the sale of the century-old Columbus Castings foundry to a New York-based corporate liquidation firm as early as today. The new owner, Bridge Street LLC, has no apparent plans to reopen the south side facility or recall its 800 workers, and will likely sell the property and equipment. Columbus Castings laid off all but a few workers in May when its parent company declared bankruptcy.
