Since 1874 the J. W. Westcott Co. has served the Great Lakes Waterways.  In this definitive history of the company you'll see how one man's dream became a way of life for generations to come.  You'll see how the Westcott Family has carried this maritime tradition into the twenty-first century.  This Video Documentary unfolds some of the rich history born on the banks of the Detroit River and reveals just what is happening today as this company celebrates 135 years of service to the Great Lakes commercial shipping industry.  With incredible footage of both the early days and today, you will see first hand what its like to ride the high seas of the Detroit River when things get a little dicey aboard the world's original floating postal zip code - 48222

With photos, archival film footage, and fascinating and informative interviews, you'll get a first-hand look at what makes the J. W. Westcott a historical treasure.
