Thanks Emanuel for your comment.

I totally agree.

I don't want to see Hamilton's east harbour turned into condos. I like to think and wish it will always stay heavy industrial and make steel. I'm not ashamed of hardhats and lunch boxes but proud of them. and proud of Hamilton's history. I don't have an inferiority complex about the views along the elevated Burlington St and the Skyway bc I know you don't see that anywhere else in Canada and probably not many places in the world.

One day perhaps it will become a cleaner industrial area with wind powered instead of coal/coke powered... or in the case of Dofasco hydro (which is still coal powered) blast furnaces. But ya... one day soon, manufacturing will become less globalized again.
