Doorway of Forgotten Dreams

On cold winters day in the steam engine machine shop, men gathered to warm themselves; gazing into the wood stove and dreaming dreams that no one remembers…

These old Moore stoves are from the very early 20th century. I’ve found references to this design from 1910.

These photos are from a photo session at the old Watts Campbell Steam Engine machine shop in Newark, NJ. this 1/2 block sized building houses a number of old machine tools, as well as items collected from the once sprawling 3-1/2 acre complex that has mostly been torn down or repurposed. Chadd Watts himself allows free-roaming access by appointment.
