I would like to see this great historical ship become a great floating ship-museum in stead of winding up being scrapped because we do not as of yet have a self-unloading great lakes freighter on display as a museum ship like the s.s. valley camp which is located in soo ste marie and the s.s. valley camp is formerly the louis w.hill when she was sold to republic steel co she was renamed the s.s. valley camp and sailed for and under the republic steel co logo until she was retired in 1966 not long after that is when the s.s.valley camp became a floating ship museum in soo ste,marie Michigan and that is what I would like to see happen to the s.s. American victory formerly the s.s. Middletown, please turn this fine former ocean-going world war 2 tanker--converted into a great lakes dry bulk self-unloading freighter into a ship-museum instead of selling her for scrap and then scrapping her making beer cans and razorblades and car fenders out of her this historical ship deserves a better fate then scrapping this ship would make a very fine floating ship-museum on our great-lakes please save her from the fate that so many other freighters had to under-go and that fate was scrapping!.

The MV Patterson has certainly lost that title as we just loaded the Algoma Harvester last week at Riverland in Duluth with just over 30,000 metric tons of spring wheat.

I'm proud to say my uncle Edison Burner was the Constuction Super for the conveyor job around 1970. AS kids we used to see the Edmund Fitz there, floating. At that time, the newer facility was not built and the old GN docks were being used.

If not, she could become a great museum ship with that kind of history

You are absolutely right; it was between 57th and 58th or 56th and 57th about 2 blocks west of Tower Avenue. The site shown here is almost in the Village (about 60th) which is not correct.

My best friend and her husband just moved to this area. It looks gorgeous. I will have to read up on the origins of the Allouez Taconite Facility. I know nothing about the history of this town, so it will be fun to learn about it and visit them. www.androcharters.com.au

This isn't anywhere near 57th St. You've either got the wrong address or the wrong place.

Clough Island, rwieber wrote 13 years ago:

Did a little research and it looks like it was a farm up until the mid-1950s From: http://goo.gl/v2GMC "The island’s uplands were farmed until the mid-1950s. The abandoned fields are now reverting to forest. A steel-pole barn and the foundations of a house are all that remain of the farm buildings."
