AMSHIP LORAIN

Lorain OH and Cleveland OH

Most recent update: October 24, 2021.
The AmShip yard in Lorain OH started life as Cleveland Shipbuilding.  It was founded in 1886 by Henry Coffinberry and Robert Wallace on the site of the Cuyahoga Steam Furnace Company, which was roughly where Detroit Avenue meets Center Street, on the Cleveland waterfront.  In 1897 they built a new shipyard in Lorain and relocated there, closing the Cleveland yard, but only two years later the company was acquired by The American Ship Building Company, eventually becoming their Lorain Division.  It continued as a leading builder of lakers until the late 1970s but closed in 1983.  The site was sold to Spitzers as a steel scrap processing facility but is now a marina: see it from the air on Google here.
