 |  | Anchor Glass Container Factory
< on 4/13/2009 11:17 PM >
|  | | | A friend and I visited the Anchor Glass Container Factory in Antioch, CA. (This is not tough to find, just put "anchor glass container factory, antioch, ca" into Google Maps.  )
This place is fairly epic in terms of urban abandonments, and I'm sure has been explored many times by people here--not least of which because I found it via a couple of users of this site.
There is much more to explore here that what is shown in these images...

| | | | Very nice! It looks like it's in great shape for a Bay Area abandonment, too.

Glad to see you made it in here. It is an incredible site. The vats are definitely the most photographically interesting aspect.
In the future, I wouldn't recommend posting comments like this on public threads. Discretion helps our sites stay graffiti free and left open for us to explorer again.

| | | | shoot, i was just there last week, and there was definitely a guy working there. i hightailed it out. he was saying they are going to use the site as some kind of dump/recycle place? i'll have to try again before it gets recycled into something else.

|  | | | Glad to see everyone is enjoying this. There's another warehouse building two doors down the river that's also exploreable, check it out.

Thanks for the tip--I'm still learning the ropes here on UER...maybe I should request a mod to strike it from the post so it's not searchable...

#1 In a cubby-hole of a closet area, I found some opportune light penetrating the darkness. 10 second exposure leaves the fleeting traces of my presence captured only in the camera.

| | | | This was my 3rd trip to this place, so I had the luxury of not rushing from place to place to try and see everything. The first visit was a bit overwhelming with all the cool stuff, like those damn vats. This time I could take some time and look for all the things I missed before. Here are a few shots.

| | | | Both you guys have some really nice stuff. I'm liking the new style Ed. #2 is my favorite. Gorgeous gorgeous colors and processing. Free, I like #4 a lot.
I gotta get back here...

| | | | Oh damn rusty, your last two shots are great. I saw you taking that straight up pic and didn't stop to look straight up myself. What a vista. Killer details on the file drawer too. I forget the closeups sometimes.

| | | | Any updates on security at this site? I just checked my pix and it's been something like three years since my last visit, though you wouldn't know from the photos. Doesn't look like it's changed much at all.
