Charlestown Navy Yard from the Harbor
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Cotton Canvas Tote · Natural · 15 × 16 inches
Keys, a book and the day's small essentials are ready by the door; this tote gives them a place to go along. 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. Keep it ready for small purchases and books, so this particular place comes along as part of a useful bag.
