More Monongahela Lock 6 demo 1965. Rices Landing, PA






These vintage shots are from the collection of Tony Meza of Rices Landing.  These shots depict the demolition of Lock 6 from September through December of 1965.  Great before-during-after shots.  Interesting shots of the W.A. Young Machine shop, too!  Personally, I dig the old blue van!


More info can be found at the Lock 6  Museum, as seen in this post.
