@Everyhumandies - it all boils down to money. Companies are not in the business to make museums of their old industrial facilities for history. Their goal is profit to stay afloat in whatever business they have invested in.

If the business fails or becomes obsolete, they sell and move on or abandon altogether. And when the company folds or gets bought out and city/county is forced to take the abandoned property over for lack of tax payments, said local government may not be able to do anything with it either so it just sits and rots.

The only buildings that survive are sold successfully to be re-used for something else. But that is becoming more rare as real estate becomes more valuable and properties get demolitioned to make room for new outdoor multi-use real estate property or otherwise remove an eye sore and danger.

For my own satisfaction I sent an email to the adjacent school, to let the people know that whoever amongst them that decided to tear it down without even salvaging any of it were thoughtless and stupid. I only feel slightly better. The reckless waste of our historical places is maddening.

Does the School still exist on the property? I'd love to send them some words about their choice to demolish this without salvaging anything first. Idiots... >:(

This is the first of your posts I've read in a long time, and it's unbelievable that such an important piece of history was left to see such an unpleasant demise...why does America and the world in general care so little about our industrial past? It's maddening...

Looks like one of those shots in Star Wars films looking down one of those huge Death Star shafts

Hmmm, you did use the word radioactive in the prior picture... Has your friend noticed any new abilities or powers?

They are going to need to close that window if they want to build up any pressure again. :)

Happy little trees! A very Bob Ross type of painting, but I do not recall any elk in his work.

Why aren't the corpses cremated?
