Atmospheric.Imagine all the noise and activity that went on and now nothing but the building remains.Why haven’t they knocked it down?

No clue. Last I heard they were trying to sale as is.

Gosh imagine the life that went on there when it was fully functioning…and now its just so…lost. I hope someone buys it and makes it into something, while still retaining its history if possible.

Those are really brilliant pictures Danny.

The office chairs still hold their maroon hue! So bright against all the differing shades of brown.

Was it smelly and were there lots of critters lurking about?

As far as smell it was a dusty, slightly musky old smell. Only critters i saw were rabbits and squirrels. I’m sure there were mice and rats, but I didn’t come across any. Lots of spiders though.

Apex predator (in my book at least)!

I swear those :chipmunk: are following you around! Perhaps they enjoy posing for you :grinning:

The abandoned steel mill.
I commented on the sad demise of this steel mill and that of quite a few other industrial production plants. Now and again I come across something more positive. I did the maintenance and trouble shooting for many years for a paper mill. Several years ago, it was shut down. Kraft paper wasn’t selling. That was it I thought.

Then another company bought it several years later. A few changes to the paper machine and now they produce toilet paper. Perhaps there is a tale to tell. …

Too small to make out much detail. So I :grinning: take your word.

I don’t know so you shouldn’t, just a feeling before demolition.

I love finding abandon places, they tell a story.


Stories you have to imagine though.eg:Was there really a Susie ?Or was it a Donald with a sense of humour?
