Calumet Shipyard & Drydock
Chicago IL
Calumet Shipyard was started in 1927 by James Rogan, a Scottish-born naval architect who had previously worked at Chicago Shipbuilding, Marine Iron Works and Dubuque Boat & Boiler Works, in partnership with August Hausler, William Carrol and William Geiger. It was located at 9367 South Harbor Drive, just north of the 95th Street Bridge, a site previously occupied by Kraft Shipyard & Dry Dock Company, a ship repair firm that was started there in 1907. The yard continued in business at least until 1961. It appears to be vacant.
