It used to be possible to tour the steel mills in Hamilton; I was taken there in high school. Hamilton's old style mills are a more interesting visit than the new, sanitary, all-behind-glass mills.
Don't visit in January. A little elementary physics will tell you that the the hot air produced by the bast furnace rises straight up and is replaced by cold air directly off the lake. You can freeze standing 40 feet from molten steel.
