Top photo from the 34th St. station ( Manhattan) and the lower image from the 4th Ave. station in Brooklyn after exiting the F train. This day there was a maintenance person washing the floors with a solution that must have been 50% bleach. Very clean and very smelly.

Asymmetry

A newer building on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Can’t recall the exact address, but it does stand out in context with the surrounding buildings.

Fisher Flour

Electrical conduit to nowhere and a crumbling pier-shot through a cyclone fence. Two of the cruise ships that travel from Seattle to Alaska every summer are in the background.

More vegetation in odd places,, broken windows and signage. Apparently King County Solid Waste Management Division is the current owner. On my to-do list is to find a contact inside the organization to field some of my questions.

Camera that could be operational. Space between buildings and vegetation that seems to grow in the oddest of places.

Peeling paint, rusting pipes and just the odd rip rap left behind.

Inside the Fisher Flour Site

The floor boards were so spongy I had to walk on the planks. When I posted this image on Flickr I referred to it as a “creepy corridor”.

The abandoned Fisher Flour Mill on Harbor Island in Seattle. This time I went inside the compound ( I think it is called trespassing ) so will be posting some images caught during that visit.

If you can afford it, copper is a nice touch that ages well.

Green-Wood Cemetery: Skylights for the Dead

On April 20, 2013 By Fred KingIn Architecture, Brooklyn, buildings, New York, Nikon D7000, Thoughts1 Comment

At the top of a hill in the cemetery there are rows of these Skylights for the crypts below. I’m not sure the dead are appreciating the extra light they are receiving, but……as with all burial places, they are probably more for the living than the deceased. I just found these rows of skylights fascinating and even peered down into the one with the broken glass. Design-wise I am not sure what period these skylights were placed there. Guessing early 20th Century…. but????? Green-Wood should be on everyone’s Bucket List.
