Thanks OG. Very informative video. At about 1:30 into the video, as the camera sweeps from east to north, you see two structues in the distance with a large metal, frame structure appearing to their left as the camera continues to sweep. Those lower structures are the ballast tanks of the floating dry-dock of the GLEW. It was the largest dry-dock on the Great Lakes at that time. It was able to lift very large lakers completely out of the water. That dry-dock, for all appearances, is sitting in the slip that is now the GLSBC. The tall, metal frame structure appearing to its left is what we called 'The Block House'. I think that was it's generally accepted, and maybe its official name. It's now gone. Anyone interested in buying the beers and burgers at my friend's bar, about two blocks away, can have a tour guided by me, if you think you can put up with me for that long [[that's my girlfriend's line).
