      This is the East end of the E.T. Works coming from East Pittsburgh to Braddock. Bessmer Terrace is up on a hill to the right. There were twenty six open hearth furnaces in the second long building in the picture. The seven blast furnaces were located way back behind the long buildings. Only two left today. I started working in Blast Furnace Maintenance in 1952. The pictures by Dorsett Studio's are fantastic. I was born and raised in Chalfant Borough and relocated out of the sate in 1960. The pictures do bring back a lot of memories
