Griffith Electric with the Factory Across The Street, South Trenton



Griffith Electric with the Factory across the street, South
Trenton. The Factory has been torn down and there is an
Arena here now but that took many years to do. There was always
a factory across the street in my day:)

That factory across the street was the US Steel American Steel & Wire company. It stretched all the way along Broad St to the RR crossing and J.A. Roeblings. They made wire rope for ship's rigging and submarine nets during WW-II.

Each evening, back in the 50s, a train-load of the day's product left the yard to cross S. Broad St.
