Byrd Field terminal area, diesel housing unit

This is the US Steel plant off I95 near Maury Street. After many years of being empty, it is now owned by a bridge construction firm. The WW2 era dormatories in the rear are long gone.

I'm pretty sure my family lived in these housing units while my father attended MCV Dental School. I was excited to see this photo because I couldn't remember the name of the terminal and didn't know the name of the housing, making it difficult to find on line. We have photos in front of our unit on his graduation day as well as video of a visit from grandparents. If there are any other photos of this area I would love to see them. Years later my father and I went by and there was yellow tape around the units to keep people out. We entered our apartment and talked about memories we made while living there.❤

That is a nice horizontal split case pump. I would love to get my hands on one of these, that is a fine piece of equipment. I don't have a split case, but it would be nice. Ashlie Sidney | www.dixiedrainfields.com
