A while back JennyUE and I explored an abandoned parade float factory in Chicago, and I've finally gotten around to editing the photo set from that visit. This factory started off manufacturing locomotives to pull mine carts for mining operations, before it eventually became a parade float workshop and warehouse. It was eventually abandoned with pieces of the parade floats scattered throughout the building.

The full album was like 20 pictures and I didn't want to put them all in a super long post, but you can find the rest of them here:

Anyway, this was a cool industrial explore with some unique parade float pieces left behind, definitely a fun explore.

Looks like a sweet spot.
Love this kind of place.

Cool!
That's an awesome lathe. I like #1 too. Very industrial.

Nice set! I'll have to make my way out sometime.

These are some great shots, love the skyline, and 1, 4, & 10 are my favorites also. Thanks for sharing!

Giant gears, complex hydraulic circuits, these were some serious parade floats.
Love that old blueprint. Did you find any papers with dates on them?

No, unfortunately the only papers left behind were some burnt blueprints. This place was very heavily graffiti'd and smashed up- it's definitely a high traffic abandonment.

Love this set! I'll be checking out this location next week after I explore the radio tower first
