Description
Black-and-white photo of elevated view of former waterfront facilities of the Penn Central Railroad with the Maxwell House Coffee plant north of it and Bethlehem Steel Shipyard beyond it, Hoboken, no date, ca. 1969-1975. Photo credit on reverse: C. Redden photographer. (C. Redden is Caroline Carlson; Redden was then her married name.) See provenance. Water damaged corner.
View is northwest and apparently taken from a floor of the Stevens Administration Building on Castle Point which is about Eighth Street.

The Pennsylvannia Railroad was the predecessor to the Penn Central Railroad.
