revisiting the factories...

We made another trip out to see the factories, of course with a stop at a favorite coffee house.  Check out our last trip here. This building has come a long way.

The widows are amazing. Yes, I realize I say that about almost every window, but look at these...they really are amazing.


There are so many factories in different stages of revitalization, but they are all beautiful in their own way.


I'm drawn to these factories, the forgotten train tracks (and the amazing coffee shop nearby too).  



This trip also lead to a new find. I haven't photographed it yet (waiting for the snow the to melt), but I am planning my next trip back here. I don't want to give away this next find yet, but I am excited to photograph it.

Abandoned Factories Finding a New Purpose

We went on a little road trip yesterday to find a great coffee shop and hopefully see a few abandoned factories. It was getting dark when we got there (and the wind was brutual), but we still had a few short moments to take in the factories.



The windows and doors are always a favorite of mine.


These factories were especially exciting to see because they are in the process of being repurposed. We saw one that we visited last year, transformed from forgotten to beautiful. I'm excited to see what becomes of these on our next visit.
