The title points to a plant associated with the name Barrett, though the record leaves part of that name uncertain, so the exact site is not confirmed. The negative dates to 1921 and comes from the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., commercial studio that photographed businesses, buildings and events in the early twentieth century. Industrial plant views like this one record factory grounds and buildings as they stood at the time, which makes them useful to researchers. Look for streaks and blemishes in the image, which come from the original glass coatings breaking down over the decades.
