• The houses in the back ground are what was known as Brooklyn Location". My Grandfather worked the Baltic and my Mother was born in one of those houses."

• The closest building is actually the #2 Hoist House. The photo must have been taken after they shut down #2. The building behind with the stack is #2 Boiler house with the coal trestle to the right.
