Just a matter of will power and money. We can hope.

Very much so. This was once a gem.

Thank you!

Also a very good one!

Me too!

It smelled like dust and memory. Not a lot of rot, at least on the upper floors. Very open to the air outside.

Within the dim depths of a massive and abandoned Cold War era manufacturing plant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This place was easily the size of a small town. Light and shadow, grime and grit. All the best things in an industrial exploration.

So crispy! The shadows and light are perfection.

This view never gets old. Fantastic job!!!

Fantastic!

Thanks for the kind words! A week and a few days until a little break! Hope you are doing well also!

Every album is absolutely fantastic! "Copperopolis" is always my favorite.

Somewhere in this huge building, the Ark of the Covenant!

It was a fantastic place with something interesting around every corner.

The beautiful decay of a massive and abandoned Art Deco theater in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Arguably criminal that we let these architectural masterpieces rot, rather than maintain and treasure them...

Inside a massive and relatively clean abandoned storage warehouse in the middle of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. So many interesting lines, rusting machinery and peeling lead paint in this beautiful old structure.

Heartbreaking. It kills me to know what we once were as a country. Even more so to see what we've become.

Is it being torn down? These were taken this past summer. I have no info on the current status. I HOPE its not being demolished!

A rusting Titan of industry; the massive, tangled and rust-red complex of the long silent and defunct Bethlehem Steel on the Lehigh River in Pennsylvania. This complex helped us win a world war; now it lies silent.

Not my photo, but this was it shortly after closure.

Weird is delightfully how they do it out there!

Damn! And that was taken down years ago!

The shattered, scrapped and torched auditorium of an abandoned Detroit, Michigan high school. Once grand and ornate, this massive shell was once adorned with red velvet seats and intricate stone decor. Now, as of 2017, it is as you see it...

Thank you! Yes, sadly, in so many ways... what was, what now is, and what could have been.

Four lost structure, all demolished; Hess & Clark (Ashland, OH); Hara Arena (Dayton, OH), John S. Gray Library (Detroit, MI), Coco Key Waterpark (Rockford, IL); all taken on my old Nikon D300 back in 2020.

Sadly, yes. Notre Dame also has the privilege of being a world landmark. This poor place...just another church on the backstreets of Buffalo. Most just see it as an eyesore.
