ArcelorMittal Indiana Harbor is a steel mill along Lake Michigan in East Chicago, Indiana, built on the site of the former Inland Steel Company, founded in 1893. Rolling mill stands and operator control cabs like this one remain inside sections of the plant that have gone out of use as production has consolidated elsewhere on site.
