When you see grass growing in places it normally wouldn’t, it is a good bet that nature is on the march, slowing taking back the property that once was used by people. Graffiti, rust and grass/weeds are benchmarks of abandonment, I think. DSC_7700-001 DSC_7702-001

Beach House & Tenant

This building is probably only fit for reptiles and rodents. I would have liked to have gone inside, but it is fenced off. It’s always a good sign when you see foliage growing out of the sides of a structure.

This first image looks a little like a fish. I thought I needed to take a few days off from the Gowanus Canal photos. Even I have limits on how much urban decay I can tolerate :-). I found this section of beach at Chambers Bay really fun to explore.

Across from Tanner Springs Park there is some old buildings from Portland’s past. Rust has taken over this particular building.

The Hangar Cafe, just across from the north side of Boeing ( King County Municipal Airport) Airfield is a converted house. The coffee is really good. I haven’t tried the food, yet. They are only open for breakfast and lunch.
