ORIGINAL CONTENT: Obsolete doorways @ Republic Steel Niles plant circa mid 2000s. When Republic bought this plant during WWI there were twenty-eight sheet mills, two jobbing mills, five cold rolling mills, and a galvanizing plant. I believe an extrusion company rehabbed and uses this part of the mill now. #therustjungle #steelvalley #steelmill #niles #nilesohio #republicsteel (at Cleary's Bar in Niles, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/therustjungle/p/BxAF4wBBAI_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=i0qc1374zg04

ORIGINAL CONTENT: Republic Steel tin mill in Niles, O. during a mid 2000s snowstorm. That track that carried that conduit from building to building was always caught my eye. Is that conduit or just heavy duty wire? One of these buildings used to house the generators so I’m assuming it’s electrical. #therustjungle #steelvalley #niles #nilesohio #republicsteel #steelmill (at Cleary's Bar in Niles, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/therustjungle/p/BvT51y9HABv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wysx8nhdawo1

Industrial Remnants, Niles, O. - According to a 1909 Sanborn fire map, these are the last two structures left standing (that I’m aware of) from the Niles Firebrick Co. The house in the front served as the offices, the three story brick structure was the pattern shop. I read that Niles Firebrick recruited heavily in Italy. You can thank them for the many Italians that live/lived in the south side of Niles. #therustjungle #steelvalley #deindustrialization #niles #nilesohio #refractory #refractorybricks #firebrick (at Pantalone & Son Towing) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpPelt8HPoI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j0j8myqf398v

ORIGINAL CONTENT: Late night view of Republic Steel Niles plant, Niles, O. I think this was the first long exposure photo I’ve ever taken. Or the first one that came out. Took this from the rail road tracks behind the mill. Didn’t have a tripod, so balanced the body of the camera on a rail and built up a support for the lens by stacking limestone ballast. #therustjungle #steelvalley #steelmill #niles #nilesohio #dragontown #republic #republicsteel (at Niles Iron & Metal) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxkICOGBMVs/?igshid=1umz9jkbamso4

ORIGINAL CONTENT: Niles, O. - Republic Steel letterhead that was still on the clipboard in their tin mill when I photographed it ten years ago or more. The space that you filled in the date is marked 19____ like the 2000s were never going to come. They never did for this mill. #therustjungle #steelmill #steelvalley #niles #nilesohio #dragontown #heatonsfurnace #republicsteel #madeinamerica #deindustrialization (at Cleary's Bar in Niles, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrS0c5ynMk6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f5szoz0g5iib
