Grampian
"Sunday Nov. 6, 1938
Discarded barge 'Grampian'
of the Blodgett fleet
rotting on river front"
Grampian's name honors a mountain range in Scotland. She was built at the Davidson Shipyard in 1894, and had been laid up at the same yard since 1930 when this photo was taken. The hull wouldn't be officially retired for several more years. You can see the remains of a rotting dock, here, and the entrance to one of the Davidson yard's abandoned slips.
John Greenwood's book Namesakes 1930-1955 has a very similar photo, dated 1941. The main difference, besides more closely framing the subject, is that a power line's been run across the river in the interim.
That looks to be the stern of Chieftain in the foreground, by the way. There's more information about the Davidson yard with the Chieftain photo in this collection. There's a 1915 diagram of the shipyard on this plat map, roughly in the center of the riverfront section.
