Four of my favorite spots n' shots out on the road exploring over the last year, taken on my Nikon D750.

The rusty gloom inside the vast spaces of the long defunct Carrie Furnace; once a US Steel blast furnace near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Scenes from the massive stone beast that is the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio. Defunct, but now run as a museum to a very grim institution.

The South 26th Street Bridge crossing over the inlet from the Schuylkill River into the Philadelphia Navy Yard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The mammoth structure that is the Brooklyn Army Terminal Building B on a warm summer's day in 2025; Brooklyn, NYC, New York.

The bridge carrying the Delaware Expressway, I-95, over the Schuylkill River near the Philadelphia Naval Yard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Decay inside of a former and abandoned food storage warehouse in Cleveland, Ohio.

The silent winter ruins of an abandoned steel facility in western New York in the early days of 2023.

The utter ruins of what was once the gorgeous rotunda of the JN Adams Hospital in Western New York. Once has to imagine what this must have looked like at its peak.

The dim, ruined and abandoned Brutalist hulk of what was once George Pepper School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as explored in the early months of 2020.

There are always those few that will take a post about an abandoned building or neighborhood, and turn it into a chance to make political charged comments or worse, racist diatribes. To those, I say: just keep scrolling and don't bother. A block is guaranteed.

The damp and dank remains of the Thorn Apple Valley Slaughterhouse in the Eastern Market neighborhood of Detroit, Michigan.

The tragedy that was once Chapman Avenue in East Cleveland, Ohio. Once comfortable middle class apartments decades ago, this whole neighborhood was abandoned when the economy shifted. It was demolished to the last a few years back.

Inside a smaller yet still beautiful abandoned church in Cleveland, Ohio in the spring of 2021.

The roofless shell of what used to be the Accurate Plating Company factory in Cleveland, Ohio. On this gloomy day, we were given geometry, rust and the best puddles for reflections to shoot!

Rust, dust and crust inside of an abandoned grain silo complex in Buffalo, New York.

A forgotten 1956 Chevy Bel-Air left behind in an old and abandoned warehouse in Detroit, Michigan.

I recently returned to Akron, Ohio’s Bomb Shelter , wherein I was able to acquire more old photos that go back to the city of Barberton, Ohio’s 1974 Cherry Blossom Festival. A pretty neat find and a very specific sliver of time trapped in amber. @TheBombShelter1

One of the main buildings that once made up a large mental health hospital complex in Middletown, New York.

The once pristine husks of the multiple buildings that once made up an abandoned naval support station in New Orleans, Louisiana.
