Factory Parking Lot, 1936 - A Glimpse into America's Industrial Landscape
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era - the year is 1936, amidst the Great Depression and the early days of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. The image showcases an employee parking lot at the Calco Chemical Company near Bound Brook, New Jersey. Photographed by Carl Mydans in February of that year, this snapshot offers a unique window into American industry during a time of economic hardship. The factory building stands tall against a backdrop of cold winter skies, billowing smokestacks releasing plumes of smoke into the air. The scene is blanketed with snow; tire tracks mark paths through the pristine whiteness as automobiles from that era are neatly parked side by side. Telephone poles and power lines crisscross above, emphasizing both connectivity and isolation simultaneously. This photograph not only serves as a historical document but also evokes emotions tied to resilience and hard work during challenging times. It symbolizes how industries like Calco Chemical played their part in providing employment opportunities for countless workers striving to make ends meet. As we gaze upon this frozen moment in time, we can't help but marvel at its stark beauty while contemplating the stories hidden within each car parked there - stories of hope, determination, and survival etched onto every surface under layers of snow.
