Deb got me curious about steel mills, and we have been talking about them a bit lately, so I did a Google image search for the Empire Reeves plant in my old hometown.

Found this. At the bottom of the image is Route 30 (Lincoln Highway) The area below that was just up from my childhood home. If there was about and inch-and-a-half more to the bottom of the image our house would have been in it.

Ah memories. It was a very industrial area I grew up in. Surrounded by railroad tracks all around, with factories in every direction. Most of it gone and closed up now.
