While this technically wasn't my first explore, it was the first time where I intentionally made a trip somewhere just for the sake of exploration rather than just stumbling upon a small find. These shots were taken back when I was still using a cellphone to shoot on and before I had much editing experience. That aside, I hope you enjoy the set.
This factory used to be part of the automotive industry until it unexpectedly had to close up shop due to budget cuts within the company. The place was absolutely massive, spanning over one million square feet. Most of the equipment had been auctioned off when the building closed, however there was still plenty of things left behind. To my knowledge this location was not known among the urbex community. We didn't even find any signs of vandalism or graffiti during our entire exploration. Unfortunately this whole entire property has now been bulldozed.
