Seattle Construction and Dry Dock Company, Steel Dry Dock, ca. 1910, postcard - 4287bd95fbb13ece8aa5626ce2f11e06 (page 1)

Transcribed from postcard: "The Steel Dry Dock and the plant of the Seattle Construction and Dry Dock Co. Length over all 468 feet, width over all 110 feet, distance between steel towers 85 feet, lifting capacity 12000 tons dead weight." A February 21, 1899 Seattle Times articles discusses the construction of the dock and lists the Moran Brothers as the primary shareholders.


The name officially changed from Moran Brothers Shipyard (a.k.a. Moran Company)to Seattle Construction and Drydock Company at the end of 1911, so this is probably a little later than 1910.
