LST-301 at Boston Navy Yard
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Cotton Canvas Tote · Natural · 15 × 16 inches
A few errands start with reaching for the bag by the door. A hull and crowd share the LST-301 view at Boston Navy Yard, with the yard's first completed LST giving the scene its identity.
The navy caption identifies first LST built by NYBos, completed November 1, 1942; hull and crowd at the water. 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 ship connects the people at the water with a documented yard milestone, keeping that specific construction history attached to LST-301 rather than a general launch. Keep it ready for small purchases and books, so this particular place comes along as part of a useful bag.
