Scope and content
Smoke pours from the 500-foot smokestack at the Kaiser Aluminum plant, 3400 Taylor Way, on October 12, 1972. The company had undergone expansion in the late 1960s and built a new aluminum rod mill and second aluminum dome in addition to the smokestack. Kaiser Aluminum would permanently close in 2002 and the smokestack demolished four years later.
