Ferracute Machine-Works, East Commerce Street, Bridgeton, Cumberland County, NJ
Summary
Significance: Ferracute Machine-Works, founded in 1863 and erected here in 1904 on the east side of East Lake, was one of several profitable makers of iron products, of which much evidence throughout South Jersey remains in the form of intricate cast porches and fences. The headquarters and factory buildings are abandoned and in poor condition, but they represent a once significant local industry.
