Ruins of an Abandoned Foundry South Troy, NY When people think of downtown Troy, NY they usually think of something like Federal St. to Washington St., North to South and 6th Ave to River St East to West. It’s not exactly that and there are other opinions, but most wouldn’t think of South Troy as being the location of Main St. yet, that its location. This area was the location of revolutionizing inventions in manufacturing and the industrial center of Troy in the 1800’s to the early 1900’s. It also made a difference in naval development during the Civil War. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Troy had eight blast furnaces, 20 forges, three rolling mills, and two foundries were located in Troy. Two manufacturers, the Albany Ironworks and the Rensselaer Ironworks produced iron for the USS Monitor. [1] Both are long gone with the Albany Ironworks site now a trash/garbage transfer station. Before that, the area was one of King Fuel tank farms and was later used as a natural gas transfer station. The buildings we investigated were “new” construction by the Burden Iron Works during the Civil War and were known as the ‘Lower Works.’ Henry Burden came to Troy in 1822, and was the superintendent of the Troy Iron and Nail Factory (known later as the Upper Works), located along Wynantskill. In 1825, he patented a machine to make wrought iron nails and spikes which were previously made by hand. During the next decade, he acquired Troy Iron and Nail, changing the name to H. Burden & Sons. [2] Henry Burden invented another machine in 1835: the first of his horseshoe making machines. He improved his machine with three more patents in 1843, 1857 and 1862. Prior to this, blacksmiths shaped each horseshoe one by one. Burden, even with his early machine became the largest manufacturer of horseshoes in America by early 1850. Ultimately the company made 3,600 horseshoes an hour, with the company machines being hailed as a technical marvel of the time. [3] This impacted the logistics of the Civil War and aided in the eventual victory. I hope you liked this look at history. I’m not really an urban explorer as such but I must admit it was fascinating to look around at industry from a past time. These buildings that were so important during a significant time in US history will be gone in a number of years. Thanks for coming along, and I appreciate you watching.
