In adding to my earlier post, I see there was another photo of the Edmund Fitzgerald posted in the 2013 MHSD calendar for the month of November. I got a little confused sorry for that one as that is the photo taken by Bob Campbell in the lower St. Marys in 1975. I have not seen the one yet in the 2014 MHSD Calendar and I will have to look at that one sometime. Again, sorry for the confusion on the photos in the MHSD calendars.

Can anyone tell me what location the picture of the Edmund Fitzgerald in the 2014 Marine Historical Society of Detroit's calendar was taken? It sort of reminds me of Marysville, Michigan near the power plant, but some of the background looks rather sparse and the river appears to be wide. From the ships in the river behind the Fitzgerald it does, however, look much like the courses the ships take as they pass the Black River at Port Huron. I'm not sure how much industry was present in Sarnia's chemical valley at the time the picture was taken, which appears to be the late 1950s or early 1960s. Or is this from the Detroit River?
