Does anyone have any history on this South Boston foundry? Built maybe around 1865 and dismantled before 1900. This company made the steel cladding for the Navy's first metal ships. Thanks, Steve

Steve, The Norway Steel & Iron Foundry is listed in the year 1887 at 70 Kilby St., Room 23. The other location for them was at 363 Dorchester Ave. I could not find them listed in the 1875 Bos Business Directory. Rob.
