Seattle Construction and Drydock Company
The Seattle Construction and Drydock Company (also known as the Seattle Dry Dock & Ship Building Company) was a shipbuilding company based in Seattle, Washington. Formally established in 1911, the shipyard could trace its history back to 1882, when Robert Moran opened a marine repair shop at Yesler's Wharf. This shop became the Moran Brothers Shipyard in 1906 and the Seattle Construction and Drydock Company at the end of 1911.

The company produced over 90 ships, including a substantial number of battleships and submarines for the United States Navy, submarines for the Royal Canadian Navy, as well as commercial oceangoing vessels. By 1917, the plant covered about and employed about 1,500 men. In that year, it had six building slips up to long; two drydocks of 12,000 tons capacity each, one drydock of 3,000 tons capacity, and was equipped to take care of repairs of all kinds.〔Welford Beaton, ''Frank Waterhouse & Company's Pacific ports (1917). p. 273.〕 The company formally ceased operations in 1918, due in large part to the poaching of its skilled laborers by newly established competitors.〔Walter V. Woehlke, ''Union Labor in Peace and War'' (1918), p. 107.〕 It ultimately acquired by William H. Todd, who operated the company as a subsidiary of the Todd Pacific Shipyards Corporation, founded in 1916 as the William H. Todd Corporation.〔("William H. Todd" ), ''The Rudder'' (1919), Vol. XXXV, p. 61.〕 Other companies operated by Todd included the Robins Dry Dock & Repair Company of Erie Basin, Brooklyn, New York, the Tietjen & Long Dry Dock Company of Hoboken, New Jersey.〔
