Nicely seen. these old factories and grist mills fascinate me too.

Mieke WA Minkjan		28-Jan-2010 05:55
I would take lots and lots of pictures of this area, before one knows it has been demolished great POV

Yes, do try document this Lynn. It's d be very cool if you could get inside. Neat shot with this perspective.

Nice perspective and tones. Good to hear that the structure will be converted into useful housing. - Racine

Great industrial scene and glad to hear they are keeping the building around. The leading tracks are nice to the eye!

Doug Cruden		27-Jan-2010 20:16
Paul's got it! That would make a grand set of photos, Lynn!

love these industrial environments...

Old style water tower & tank "towers" above this railroad spur. The "old" Imperial Sugar Refinery here in Savannah blew up violently two years ago, killing and maiming a number of the workers there.

Perfect in B&W.... Jv

It does have a deserted feel to it, hopefully something good will be there once!

Mary Terry		27-Jan-2010 05:51
I'm fascinated by abandoned industrial buildings. Great capture!

Cindi Smith		27-Jan-2010 02:57
I think there is one in Baltimore. I love these old buildings and the railroad yards. That water tower is a nice touch too. Excellent composition, girl! Good job!

Nice monochrome.

Sheila		26-Jan-2010 23:55
Pauls' idea is a very good one. You could document the changes as they happen. I love the name Sugar Land, now I know why it is called that.

Super sense of grim industrial decay :o)

A nice industrial scene.

Guest		26-Jan-2010 20:50
Very nice perspective Lynn!!

J. Scott Coile		26-Jan-2010 20:47
...end of the line...

Gary Blanchette		26-Jan-2010 20:44
Awesome perspective here.

Guest		26-Jan-2010 20:17
Document the historical closing and reclamation as much as you can. I live in what was once a Steel town, and it's amazing how few pictures there are. The monochrome certainly sets the tone on this one

Stewart Mitchell		26-Jan-2010 19:28
...the end of the line!! The tracks lead you straight to the tower :)

Ronald Bijtenhoorn		26-Jan-2010 18:52
That's a nice industrial shot

Guest		26-Jan-2010 16:21
I love that underground railroad.

Mairéad		26-Jan-2010 14:51
This industrial scene makes a good choice for B&W

Stephanie		26-Jan-2010 14:44
Thus the name: Sugar Land!
