US Steel Fairless Plant on the Delaware River 🗺️
About US Steel Fairless Plant on the Delaware River ....
Closed in 1992, the image on the left from 1993 shows the shuttered plant shortly after it closed. The plant was developed in 1952 and left quite a mess only 40 years later when it was done for good (view from 2019 on the right).
