Abandoned Industrial Places

- Factories, laboratories, mills and mines that the world left behind

From factories, mines, and nuclear power stations to space research centers, Victorian English mill towns, and American gold rush settlements, Abandoned Industrial Places examines the places history left behind.
 
Once these industrial spaces were celebrated and thriving; now, they’re ghostly and forlorn. When times change and they’re no longer needed, power stations, gasworks, car plants, factories, and mine derricks are often too large to destroy. So they linger, looming over the landscape, haunting relics of the past. Ranging from Cuba’s unfinished nuclear power station to atomic test sites in England, from Nevada’s silver towns to a French coal-washing facility, from a sugar factory in Belgrade to a whole mining island in Japan and, yes, Chernobyl, Abandoned Industrial Places captures these imposing, often eerie, structures. Some are magnificent pieces of architecture, others appear like ragged pieces of piping out of science fiction, but each one tells a fascinating story.

Hudson Body Plant, Detroit; Crystal Mill near Marble, Colorado; Michigan Central Station, Detroit; Redstone Rocket Test Site, Huntsville, Alabama; Don Valley Brickworks, Toronto, Canada
