Here is an old factory that I tread through often. It is one of my favorite places since it is safe during the day and at night (well atleast this part of it). I have tons of pictures of this place from different cameras, years and with different quality levels. If anyone's interested in those i can dig some up. But my most recent taken with an S10e are for the most part the best I have. So those are what I posted.

There is another section I found my way into recently which is still decently well preserved due to lack of foot traffic. I'll have to go back and get pictures another time.


























































If your uncle Jack were stuck on a roof. And he asked for your help. Would you help your uncle Jack off?

That looks really fun! Cool set.
Unfortunately, any factories that were close by me have now been demolished or close to being demolished : /

Not bad, what did it used to manufacture?

Also just to be picky if you could leave a space between each photo and number them that makes life a lot easier.

Nice Pics like others said I agree and looks like a sweet place to explore! I actually sort of like how the pics dont have numbers and are not spaced out... Curious to know if you did that intentionally or it it just uploaded that way on your device. I suppose the benefit to having your photos numbered though is it makes it easier for others to comment to specific pictures within your posts. Maybe post again later with all your night photos of the place! Try to post the same sort of photos during day but taken at night! I'll give you a double high five if you upload the same quantity of pictures all different perspectives at night that are equally as high definition and sharp! haha! You got a good eye!

What kind of factory was it ? The notes are about phosphate, sulfite, reagent... , they might had chemicals inside ?

The place is huge, the photos are nice to see everywhere, good job !

Industrial wreckage...great stuff! Guess I learned a new word too (the more you know 🌠).
But...why is the devil wearing a suit and tie, carrying a briefcase (or gas can?) depicted on that sign...
Perhaps I'm overthinking it.😲
Anyway, thanks for sharing, looks like a fun explore.

Thanks guys! Unfortunately I've been busy over the past day or two and the time limit for me to edit to post has expired so I cannot add spaces.

This factory used to manufacture wire and other metal products. It was a super fund site a few years ago and they cleared out the remaining chemicals. There was some pretty terrible chemicals like barrels of spilt cadmium powder. I thought it was like dye or something... Ope. I never touched it or anything but in the past I kicked the powder with my boot. The place is pretty big and it used to be quite a active place! Would have been awesome to see in action. Nowadays it sits peacefully as plants steadily take it over.


The Indecline sticker is a form a graffiti the "lazy man's graffiti" there is quite a few of these stickers around the factory in various places and I believe it signifies the greed of buisinesses and how it's causing the decline of American industry.

I do not currently posses any good quality night photos of the place. Back in 2014 I went through the place at night with a road flare and my alcetel Dawn and took some fuzzy shadowy photos that didn't come out too great. I mostly deleted them except a selfie lol. I ought to go back and try to take night shots with my new phone.

Indecline is just some edgy art nonsense.
