Dry Dock 5 and Constitution Pier
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Die-Cut Sticker · White · 4 × 4 inches
Before heading out, pick up your notebook or smooth case, with this small view attached to something already in use. Dry Dock 5, Shipways 1 and Constitution Pier give this Navy Yard view several named working elements to notice around the water.
The 1946 source records a compilation photograph whose primary caption identifies the named yard elements. The yard's piers and buildings connect this particular view to Boston's history of shipbuilding, repair and harbor work. They preserve a working waterfront at the time of the source.
The dock, shipways and pier connect different uses of the same yard, keeping the identified facilities within one Boston naval waterfront setting. It makes a small gift that can go onto an everyday item, with the subject's history there for someone who wants to ask.
