EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Manville Iron Works in all its industrial glory. Taken by renowned photographer Carl Mydans in February 1936, during the heart of the Great Depression, this image provides a glimpse into a time when American industry was struggling to survive. The scene depicts the exterior of the iron works factory, situated against a backdrop of snow-covered grounds. The smokestacks billow thick plumes of smoke into the cold winter air, symbolizing both progress and pollution. A railroad track runs alongside the factory, highlighting its importance as a hub for transportation and commerce. Despite its somber atmosphere, there is an undeniable beauty in this image. The powerlines crisscrossing above add an element of modernity to an otherwise bleak landscape. Telephone poles stand tall amidst the snowy surroundings, connecting this remote location to the rest of society. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of America's resilience during challenging times. It represents not only an era marked by economic hardship but also one that witnessed significant government intervention through programs like FSA (Farm Security Administration) and New Deal initiatives. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, let us reflect on how far we have come while honoring those who worked tirelessly at places like Manville Iron Works to build our nation's foundation.
