An old cylinder casting plant that made engine cylinders for cars, trucks, airplanes, and boats. Lots of wide open manufacturing space with good natural lighting from where the roof has caved in.
Watch out for a man in a green jeep who sometimes hangs out on the north side of the property and will chase you around town if he sees you taking pictures, and usually calls the cops as well.
11.10.2023 - Disappears from satellite images sometime between 2020 and 2022.

Old vehicles, what appears to be a disused squat, and plenty of cool photo opportunities with natural lighting. A great view of the skyline from the roof. Some cool heavy lifting cranes both inside and outside the building.

Founded in 1916 this engine cylinder casting plant reconfigured its operations to produce war goods for the United States military during WWII.
While finding an exact shutdown date for this factory proved difficult, online mentions of worker pension plans indicate that the factory was in operation in 1992, and possibly as late as 1997.

It sounds like the property owner is content to allow it to slowly decay.
