Dry Dock, Charlestown Navy Yard
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Matte Hardcover Journal · 150 lined pages · 5.71 × 8.07 inches
Set aside a few minutes for a list or some reading notes, with the journal open and a pen ready beside the book you have been reading. Charlestown Navy Yard's dry dock is empty in this stereograph, with the basin itself rather than a vessel giving the picture its focus.
A stereograph published circa 1850-1920 shows empty basin; distinct operational state from occupied dock. 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 empty dock connects naval work with the structure that made maintenance possible, showing a working facility at a particular operational stage. Use it for notes at home or away, with the local picture on the cover.
