Handwritten on the back, "Old Moore Shipyard." Photo is an aerial shot of the shipyard ten years after the company went out of business. Two partial cargo ships are floating in the water next to the docks. Several buildings are still in tact but large piles of debris litter the entire area. Each dock has a crane still on it. A train appears to be going by on the far left side.
