Abandoned Ship
About a year ago* this ship was pushed into this moorage location adjacent to a metal scrapyard on the Duwamish River in South Park ( South Seattle). Since that time the scrapyard has ceased being a viable business and the property has been cleared, few reminders of the scrap business. What will become of this rusty, abandoned ship is a mystery at this point in time. There is an ongoing effort to clean up the river that has been going on since the EPA declared the area a SuperFund site back in the 1970’s, the first such declaration by the EPA.
*I just happened to be at this location to watch the ship being pushed by two small tugs into this spot. I have been shooting this location regularly for the past few years, documenting the major changes that are ongoing.
Reminder/Notice
Just a reminder that my photo display is still going on at Capitol Hill Hair. Tues through Sat. from 9:00AM to around 6:00PM. If you live in or near Seattle please feel free to stop by and take a peek. I will probably be stopping by myself this Saturday around 11:00AM to straighten frames and make sure everything I put on the walls is still up on the walls–gravity has a way of pulling things down. The address is: 514 19th Ave. East ( basically, 19th and Republican, east side of street on ground floor).
