Indiana Army Ammunition Plant real estate sheet 2 of 4, 17 Jun 1971, Charlestown, Indiana

Description: A map of real estate of Indiana Army Ammunition Plant located on Highway 62 in Charlestown, Indiana. This is sheet 2 of 4. It shows the property of the original Indiana Ordnance Works built by du Pont where black powder was manufactured. Originally created in 1940 and last updated in 1971. The United States federal government began acquiring land in Charlestown, Indiana in 1940 to build a smokeless powder ordnance plant to supply the US military during World War II. Indiana Ordnance Works (IOW) Plant 1 and Hoosier Ordnance Plant (HOP) began production in 1941. In 1944, IOW Plant 2 construction began. On 30 Nov 1945 at the end of WWII, the three plants were combined and renamed Indiana Arsenal. Between 1 Nov 1961 and 1 Aug 1963, the plant was designated Indiana Ordnance Plant. After this time, it became Indiana Army Ammunition Plant (INAAP). Production of ordnance continued at the plant until 1992. After that time, the land and facilities were leased to private industry. A large portion of the land became Charlestown State Park. In October 2016, all the land and facilities were officially sold by the government. This item is part of a larger collection of items from INAAP that are kept at Charlestown Library.This digital image was created from a PDF file. The PDF was converted to TIFF. The original scanning to PDF and saving to CD-ROM was completed by persons at Indiana Army Ammunition Plant.
