Historic Industrial Iron Spiral Staircase from Boeing's Iconic Plant 2

About the Item

Step into history with this remarkable cast iron spiral staircase, once a part of Boeing Plant 2 a legendary factory built in 1936 in Seattle, Washington, USA. This architectural piece has a rich history tied to the production of some of the most iconic aircraft of the 20th century, including the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, Boeing 307 Stratoliner, Boeing B-29 Superfortress, and even the early Boeing 737s. Boeing Plant 2, a massive facility spanning over 1.5 million square feet, played a pivotal role in the development of military aircraft during World War II and beyond. To protect the plant from potential aerial attacks, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers created a unique camouflage system, constructing a fake neighborhood around the facility, which earned it the nickname "Boeing Wonderland." Now, you can own a piece of this rich history. This spiral staircase, salvaged from one of the most important industrial landmarks in aviation history, is not just a functional piece—it’s a story of innovation, secrecy, and resilience. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a collector of aviation memorabilia, or someone looking for a one-of-a-kind architectural feature for your home or office, this staircase offers both aesthetic beauty and historical significance. The manufacture was Acme Ornamental Metal Co. a well-known manufacturer of architectural metal products, including staircases, railings, and other ornamental features, particularly in the early 20th century. This cast iron spiral staircase has 34 steps and 4,000 lbs
