Between
tracks of Marine Ry.: Boat storage
J. Lockers
This
map shows no dry dock facilities and only two tracks of the “Marine Ry.”
It also shows no launching ways.
As the blacksmith shop is in the same place as my 1940 shot, then, in 1940, it
was not under construction, but under renovation . . . perhaps being enlarged or
perhaps being rebuilt after a possible fire?????
When I worked there, the 1st building below the blacksmith shop
became a locker room, toilets, pipe fitters shop and electric shop.
The mould loft was still there upstairs but was no longer in use other than for storage of the old wooden molds.
The office had its own building across West End Avenue , adjacent to the LIRR’s ROW.
The stock room was moved to the building closer to water’s edge.
The saw mill was moved to its own building about where the southern “lockers” building is shown and a complete carpentry shop took over the entire building, with the ship fitters department office also therein.
And
more boat storage buildings were installed as well as the Marine Ry. crossing
