LSMMA Evening Series: S.S. Meteor
to
Canal Park Lodge 250 Canal Park Dr., Duluth, Minnesota 55802
In the 10 years from 1888 to 1898, the Twin Ports hummed with activity as the American Steel Barge Company built over 40 barges and steamships to Duluthian Alexander McDougall's patented whaleback design. S.S. Meteor is the last of these iconic ships. Meteor museum volunteer Roger Pellett will discuss the life of this historic vessel with emphasis on the many changes made over the years to allow her to survive. Free and open to the public.
