Charlestown Navy Yard from the Harbor
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Corkwood Coaster Set · Four pieces · 3.75 × 3.75 inches
Keep the coasters where the family gathers for tea, so a small picture is part of the table along with the cups. Dense piers and ships spread through the harbor-facing Charlestown Navy Yard aerial, giving the shore's working arrangement several details to return to.
The 1942 source records a harbor-facing aerial of main yard, ships and dense piers. 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 yard layout connects ships with their piers and shore buildings, keeping Boston's naval waterfront visible as a working place rather than vessels alone. Use the set when friends come over, with a view under each drink and the local connection there to share.
