the guy who wrote this song actually worked at the Bridgeport Lathes, so it certainly existed at one point or another. And I think it was a place WITH lathes, making whatever, NOT a place that made lathes, doing metalwork, hence the references to Blanchard [blenchert?] grind-alls etc. Thanks for the fact check though.
Bridgeport did not make lathes. Did you really mean "Bridgeport Mills"?
