98 Years Ago

The Great Molasses Flood happened in Boston.

The tank was poorly made, of inferior steel, and the steel was half of the thickness that it should have been. It had never been tested. The tank leaked so much that the company painted it brown to hide the leaks.

The flood was a testament to what happens when companies do things without regulation or oversight.
