I think I've personally walked past everyone of these locations (yep even the last one...multiple times).  I must really wander a lot. Usually these aren't the places you are looking while you walk, but they're all interesting in their own sense..especially the second to last pic of the alley.

 

Great eye MayDay!

 

EDIT: take that back, I've only driven the second picture..never walked.

True grit!

 

I especially like the multiple bridges shot from the Flats.

Gritty indeed.

Love the grit.

Wowsers!!!  Now this is some nice attention to detail...oh, and I'm loving the grit shots by the way.

Interesting. I love old industrial sites.

Bah...  This is barely grit.  After seeing the grit of St. Louis and Detroit this is grit falls short. - Compliment of course...

I have always been a big fan of industrial scene views/photos. I remember my dad taking my bro's and I up to Conneaut harbor to watch the old huletts and ore bridge working at the P&C dock company (now owned by the CN). They're all long gone. Same deal in Ashtabula. I've always been fascinated by the immensity and complexity of working ports/steel mills/large industry. Honest men doing honest work. The creation of wealth.

I really hope the old B&O terminal in the flats can be rehabbed in a timely manner. That building is a gem.

One of the best grit threads ever.

Epic thread bump.  So how many of these scenes have changed since 2007?  I know that Union Gospel press looks a lot different today.

Really? Anyone have some before and after pics?

 

 

Edit: Nevermind, thought you said "So many", not, "So how many".

Good bump!

Love the grit.

 

 

 

 

 

Wow!! Love the black and white! Definitely gritty!
