Scope and content
On August 22, 1954, the Dravis Engineering & Marine Works company was located in two buildings on Dock Street, 1107 Dock St., almost underneath the 11th Street (now the Murray Morgan) Bridge over the City Waterway. Owned and operated by Frederick Dravis, they handled marine and general machine design, construction and repair. Established in 1912, they were formerly known as Hicks-Bull Machine Co., Inc. The State of Washington had licensed them as mechanical engineers but they were also machinists and surveyors.
