THE SHIPYARD
With base closure looming, national attention focused on the Portsmouth Naval
Shipyard in the summer of its 205th year. With the future in doubt, we pause instead, to take a look backward 100
years. Click to see a dozen colorized postcards from the historic shipyard at
the turn of the 20th century.
READ a Brief History of the Portsmouth Shipyard
The definitive history of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard is available in the book
"Do Your Job!" by Richard Windslow – a book well worth owning. It was published
in the year 2000 during the 200th anniversary of the nation’s oldest public / private shipyard. When base commander
Isaac Hull arrived for duty here during the War of 1812, there were only a few
scattered buildings and a dozen employees. At its peak the Yard employed over
8,000. A total of 134 submarines were built here by 1969. The following postcards
offers a look back at shipyard as it was seen by visitors around the turn of the
20th century. --JDR
