Posted by blackhawk Anyone try climbing the stacks? |
Posted by brokenbits Fun Fact: Apparently this place once had the nickname "Widget Town". There was an urban legend that a population of "Widgets" (midgets but a bit taller, I guess?) lived here and would throw you in the smokestack if you trespassed onto the property! |
Posted by brokenbits Looks like someone has in the past judging by the graffiti, although the first 15-20 ft of latter rungs have been ripped out so it wouldn't be easy. |
Pretty sure the holes in the back wall are bullet holes... |
but the place does seem to be relatively safe nowadays. Not sure if I'd show up here at night though. |
Posted by decayed state It's crazy how this place looks like the Dickson Incinerator we have in Montreal |
Posted by Dee Ashley They are. If you get there at the right time, the sun will stream in and the dust will create some pretty cool light rays that shoot in through those holes. ... It’s not particularly safe any time of day, but definitely not safe at night. I wouldn’t go there alone - day or night, but that’s just me. ****** Thanks for adding the old historic photo for comparison. I like to see the way places like this have changed and decayed over time. Cool set! - DA |
