Acme's Riverdale Steel Mill, now closed and largely demolished. The rolling mill next to the NS Barr Yard is Riverdale Flat Products, still in operation and owned by ArcelorMittal.

This was once the largest anvil production site in North America. Meep meep.

Comments

  • Acme Steel is now owned by Arcelor-Mittal. The polygon for "Acme" should extend slightly more southward to include the Mittal facility that runs along the rail yard.
