Long Lost Industry On the Bay

On my last trek out along Perdido Bay, I found a small spot on the far corner of Blue Angel Park that seems to have had some sort of industrial buildings that have long since been forgotten and destroyed by man, nature, and time. This won't ever be considered award winning or even a great shot. But someone took the time to stack some older bricks on top of a crumbling foundation amidst twisted and rusting iron and scattered brick. I couldn't locate any history for this specific location to lead me to any indication of what this building was built for.

Yes that is correct. This portion of the park is on the opposite of the old air strip and at least 500 yards or more from any of the paved seaplane portions of the park. I'm guessing whatever it was might have pre-dated the airfield.
