Description

View of Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, Philadelphia County, P.A., 1897 / drawn & published by Webster & Hunter.

This panoramic print of Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, Pennsylvania was drawn and published by Webster & Hunter in 1897. Philadelphia became the site of the United States Naval Shipyard in 1801. As ships were beginning to be made of iron in the 1870's, the shipyard facilities were moved from their Front St. location to League Island. This new site at the confluence of the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers employed hundreds of Philadelphians.

The image from 1897 includes buildings, warships, piers, dry docks and city skyline in the distance.
