I'm sure I'll be down in Florida at some point; I will try!

I don't recall there being much left inside the projector room - I would imagine it was all scrapped.

Thanks, I took a photo class in college but didn't fare too well until I found abandoned buildings to shoot.

I would assume the old equipment was replaced at some point with a more up-to-date generating system, which would explain the seemingly out of place concrete block.

The title stems from the enormous arches that held up the roof I was standing on, and their resemblance to the inside of some kind of mythical whale or sea creature in my imagination...

I didn't notice that - you're right Chris, it looks like the same wall with a few modifications, and the "shadow" of the lower section can be seen in the modern photo.

Reminds me of War of The World the original movie. I like it ... :)

I can only guess at a shaft for air ventilation or space for conduits or water pipes.

Thanks guys!
autoguy - I didn't get to see the ore unloaders but will keep an eye out for them next time I'm in Chicago - I did manage to scope out the Acme coke plant on the south side after this place, working on that set at the moment.

LucieLou - thanks, I've been super busy shooting abandoned buildings on the south coast during the past few days, but I'm back now!
