Frequently asked questions
The ironworks closed generations ago. Why would that still wet a wall?
The fill outlived the furnaces. Ground laid down along the confluence still weeps into rubble walls, and it does not care that the works went cold. What was left behind is doing the work now.
The furnaces have been gone for decades. Can the fill still wet a wall?
Yes. Fill along a confluence stays tied to both channels. Ash and mill waste in it hold water and weep into rubble long after the heat left. The volume does not have to be a flood to keep a 1951 wall damp through September.
The plaster failed in this unit. Could the water have entered two roofs over?
On these iron-works rows, yes. A shared parapet and an internal leader carry water along a joist line until the plaster is weakest, which is often not the unit where the scupper clogged. The stain is an exit. Opening only this ceiling will miss the entry two addresses up the row.
