Well, now I'm a wee bit confused. The walls look cement on the bottom, and plastered with the remains of green paint, or is that mold/moss on the top half? 'Cause, it that's paint, the rest of it should be on the floor like the other buildings where the paint has fallen off.
Wow, brings back memories. i worked on equipment just like that when I was in SatCom in the 1980's. The Az/El control looked just like what we had on our system. I was stationed in Augsburg Germany in the late 1980's and there was an old Nazi base there that was plowed over but I found an underground access tunnel that I could not get into. It is probably still there but the entrance area was bull dozed. It used to be an airstrip in WW2 and was where Hess flew out of when he negotiated the 'surrender' of Germany.
..too fantastic..YES...each with a defined expression;
and just up there for decades...
So awesome - would be so nice if they were saved...taken care of..and cherished....
to somewhere..a garden...
I scrolled through this last night. I was and still am a bit heartsick. I had thought that it was only Detroit and NOLA that had been allowed to fall into ruin. I dare not look into the story further it would probably keep me stuck to the puter all day and make me even sadder.
The facade is fantastic as is the Murphy building. I guess if those western gold/mineral boom ghost towns had gotten this big maybe they would look similar?
Yes -
AvalonSeeker; surely cabinet cupboard + doorframe wood is oiled + sealed, to last so well
- yet this whole place has such a crude matter-of-fact raw look.
No paint.
Look at wall picture "Stairwell" - just those square blocks.
It is an unusual look, is it not?
