Westport Orange, Orange TX

Westport Orange Shipyard, LLC, operates the shipyard in Orange TX that was developed by Consolidated Steel in WWII as one of the country's major builders of DDs and DEs. After the war, it operated as a U.S. Steel fabrication shop until the late 1980s, when it was acquired by Texas Drydock, Inc, (TDI). TDI later became the TDI-Halter division of Trinity Industries, then FGO International and, finally, Signal International Texas. Westport Orange acquired the assets of Signal International Texas in 2014. Visit the company at www.westportorange.com and see the yard from the air on Google here.
