In Hamtramck, near Factory Zero and the detention center and recycling center, is a medium sized abandoned foundry in a triangular nook. The entire area where the old roads were is fenced off today, but you can easily get in. Inmates can shout through the windows too, making it surreal.
This building is called the Missant building, but was called Swedish Crucible before it switched hands.







This is a pretty cool way they arrange pipes



Some green slime pit. Crazy



The foundry halls, 2 floors tall. I had to climb through a cinder block wall to get in the factory, instead of just walking around







Gantry crane, manufactured in a building that is abandoned today





2 decimated doorways



Something went on these shelves. I'm not sure what



Further behind the shelf room was some electrical room with locker-breakers and wire conduits



The loading bay fell in a fire, some other parts of the building were affected in that area too



There wasn't much of a second floor to take pictures of, plus I was standing on old bits of wood tiles supported by steel beams



That's pole is part of the old elevator, in the part of the building that burnt up.



A collapsing room on the roof



This disguised roof part might've had some water tank or some other gravitational storage, those tubes go somewhere



The newer half of the building with saw tooth roofs and a small cooling tower



This is entry anarchy, you can find a nice-looking Haels graffiti piece in that room



The white tanks around back

Sounds surreal! I like the last photo looking up through the ladder, gives a cool perspective that makes you feel like your there.

Cool! Just curious, did any inmates shout at you while you were exploring?




"Sorry, I didn't know I'm not supposed to be here," he said, knowing full well he wasn't supposed to be there.

Yeah they do because they bored, only if they notice you. They'll just yell some stupid stuff.

Pigeons, most likely...
