Photograph of a group of people in hard hats observing the demolition of a portion of the Ohio Works, U.S. Steel in Youngstown, Ohio, on August 7, 1983. U.S. Steel, headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was founded in 1901. In the early twentieth century the company manufactured more than sixty percent of the steel made in the United States. However, by the early 1980s, changes in the steel industry led the company to drastically reduce its steel production and become more diversified. |
