Very cool. It looks like the opening at the base was once much larger and got bricked over.

That's like asbestos paper mache. Liquid ammonia is still used for large scale commercial freezers.

Is that coal or gravel?

Funny, I would not have noticed him unless you mentioned that he was there! Must have been one noisy room to work. Neat picture.
