In 2014, when Tradepoint Atlantic purchased the 3,300 acre industrial site that had served as home to Bethlehem Steel, the company recognized the importance of the legacy it had inherited. By partnering with the BMI to support the multi-year Bethlehem Steel Legacy Project, Tradepoint Atlantic demonstrated its commitment to the former steel mill workers, their families, and to the Sparrows Point community.

The BMI’s first ever outdoor exhibition, Women of Steel, garnered national recognition, including an Award of Excellence from the Association of American State and Local History, honoring the exhibit’s outstanding contribution to the preservation and interpretation of local history. This exhibition was made possible thanks to the generous support of corporate partners including Tradepoint Atlantic and PNC Bank.
