Pre-World War II steel furnaces. Amazing to look at their sheer size. What is even more amazing is that these are some of what used to be many more in this area. They've put some art inside this and you can even take tours (they are expensive, but allow you to enter into this place without trespassing).

That's the one thing I wish we had out here in California. All the cool rust belt buildings are gone. Cool set and great destination!

It's now a heritage site so it's fenced off. Tours are like $25-50, but they're only open on weekends. If you Google the name of the site they have information about the tours. One of the tours is guided by former workers in the plant. It sounds cool, but still is way too expensive.

Amazing! I have just recently stumbled across some of these online and wanted to get into them. Thanks for the photos and the tour info. I am definitely going to have to look into it.

The tour is with a company called rivers of steel. The tour is actually worth the money just for the stories from the guys who've worked in the mill.

Nice pictures! This place looks really cool. I'd pay for the tour. I'd rather be there legally anyway. No need to take the chance of getting caught, even though I like the thrill of being somewhere you're not supposed to be.

The regular guided tours are supposed to only be 15$. They do a photo workshop, that is $55. There is also a graffiti workshop type thing. That tour is $35. I highly suggest the guided tour even if you've been there for free in the past. I went on one of the guided tours before I started doing some work with Rivers of Steel, and it was awesome.
