Description
Black-and-white photograph of the Bethlehem Steel Hoboken Shipyard by Caroline Carlson, 1978.
Silver gelatin print, 15-1/2" high x 23" wide image on 16x20 paper. White matte
signed and dated (matte water damage and cockled; print slight cockle, but otherwise good.)
Carlson is a longtime Hoboken resident and professional photographer. This view is south - southeast from an elevated position presumably in the former Lipton Tea / Standard Brands building. The shipyard was still active as of the date of the photograph.
Fourteenth Street runs east-west and Hudson Street is the street running north-south (with railroad tracks still seen in the center of it.)
Beyond the shipyard to the south on Hudson Street is the Maxwell House Coffee plant.
