I'd love to salvage those fixtures and even the tile if I could!

Excellent pic, macro, micro. It's animated in a still photo. Hey, Motts, you do good work.

Rebar is still used today. We use it in the block and foundation for the houses we build. I actually am the one who figures out how much to use and what length. This place would be a great place for wedding pictures.

Oh Shawn, how you have it so wrong. This was older model of the modern day Jacuzzi, you know, for pleasure only. It was no more than a hydrotherapy tub, for better or worse.

Not bad, but looks like a feeble attempt of a Kirdbride. Nevertheless, a damned good pic.

Demilune, of course they do and will continue even after they turn to dust.

Absolutely a Jack 'O" Lantern staring from within. Have to look at it with an open open mind.

I can't wait for your next galleries. I live near this huge airforce shipping station on the water. It even has pumps to pump all the oil into ships and a warehouse that is tin on the outside but inside its all wood?? I tried to email you. I dont think it got through though or maybe you're flooded with emails. I will try to send a panoramic picture of the outside of all the buildings. It's in WA (not D.C.). I can give you an exact address through private email but I would enjoy seeing this place on your site.

I meant the machinery that makes the hands move.

Amazing. The last two pictures of this craft on the Naval Historical Center show the bridge and spotlight and they're still there.

The sense I get from these series of photos is how quiet these dead ships must be. A working ship is alive with sound: engines throbbing, ventilation systems blowing; pumps, motors and florescent lights humming, and the staccato sound of deck sailors chipping off rust and old paint with pneumatic and hand hammers. You don't notice it until it stops. For USS PC 1264 it has been stilled forever.

Even worse, it could be that dudes toilet!!!

Did all large buildings have their own personal power plants in the old days?

just keep them coming

Those antique industrial lights are expencive I just bought a pretty good one pulled from a building being demolished

Are those yellow lines brass plated?
