Quincy Smelter

Some of the buildings still standing at the Quincy smelter, Hancock Michigan, USA. Part of Keweenaw National Historical Park. The window vents in the boarded up windows have been installed by the National Park Service pending a future restoration. Thanks to the Quincy Smelter Association for allowing access.

 

This smelter is unrestored and is pretty much the way it was on closing day in 1970. The operation here dates back to the 1860's.

 

Map location is approximate inside the smelter grounds.
