A block of small, older houses stood beyond the field.

Just inside the kitchen door stood a butcher's block with a large cleaver resting on it.

A few blocks from the heart of town, for example, stands the old Scovill plant, 90 percent shut down since 1984.

At the top of the steps above the mounting blocks stood another captain.

So was the main camp section, where the workers' blocks stood, called "America"?

A block of flats now stands on the site.

Large blocks stood upright, buried to a third of their length.

Now, entire blocks of that industrial village stand barren and silent.

A big old mounting block stood just to one side of it.

Only a few blocks away stood the world's biggest zipper factory.
