Good place for photography to be sure but also sad considering that this neighborhood of empty lots, boarded-up buildings, and vacant storefronts just a few blocks from downtown, was once a bustling center of automobile manufacturing in the late 1890’s/early 1900’s.
Yes. Big industrial urban tragedy. Sometimes very sad and hopeless for remaining population. Sometimes a good ecosystem for creativity and innovation…. (and photography…)

Thanks Jag. Lots of interesting details in these abandoned factory exteriors. I can only imagine what treasures await inside.

I have one post up – an initial take, totally not comprehensive, but a mash-up, if I can say that, of impressions. :-)
