I just came across this site and can't tear myself away. This shot is particularly moving. Why doesn't someone step up and try to save places like this? Believe me, if I had the funds and means to, I would love to purchase a place like this. Heck, I'd move in and live in it!!

I think the hole in the cone shape at the end was probably for the nozzle to spray fuel oil atomized with air. The cone shape itself for a spriral effect for better air/fuel mixture. The lower shaft for the cooler air inlet and the upper one for the outlet or chimney.

I could be wrong but this is kinda my field. Great work. You should put out a video collage of the places you've been and have yet to go. I'd watch it.

This Chapel would be beautifull if it was restored. I would love to play J.S. Bach on the Pipe organ inside. With all the famous people buried here it makes you wonder why they would let it get in this condition.

I only found your site today, Mr Motts, and I have to say that out of the four or five galleries I've looked at so far, this is my favourite. Just beautiful.

...sorry, it begged to be done. Nice coloring on the bricks and the rusty metal.

This shot and the one before remind me of an excerpt from Mozart's Requiem:

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis, cum sanetis tuis in aeternum, quia pius es.

(Grant them [the dead] eternal rest, O Lord, and may perpetual light shine on them, with Thy saints for ever, because Thou are merciful.)
