Mobile Shipbuilding

Mobile AL

Most recent update: August 24, 2021.

I can find little about the Mobile Shipbuilding Company. It appears to have been located at the foot of Virginia Avenue, where the State Container Terminal is now, so it is probably the facility that in WWII was ADDSCO's "Lower Yard".

If you have an addition or correction for this page, please send it in.
