In 1870 Carnegie erected his first blast furnace called Carnegie Company in Braddock, Pennsylvania. Located near Pittsburgh.
 * Carnegie's partners** were his brother Tom Carnegie, Henry Frick, and **Andrew** and Anthony Kloman.

Between 1865 and 1870 Carnegie made money from investments through many small iron mills and factories. Also, he traveled all over England, selling the bonds of small United States railroads and bridge companies. He started to see that steel was someday going to replace iron for rails, structural shapes, pipes, and wires. In 1873 he made a steel rail company. The first steel furnace at Braddock, Pennsylvania, started to produce rails in 1874. Instead he collected money from profits—and, if needed, from local banks. He kept on making heavy steel. By 1878 the company was valued at $1.25 million.
