Can They Save This One?

I often drive past this barn, and it has always been surrounded by ground that is overgrown with blackberries and other brush. This time the area has been cleaned up and one can actually see the whole barn. Is it too late to save it? I don't know, but it looks pretty sad.

I hate to see these old barns falling apart. They're quite a few in this area as well. Very nice, detailed photo of this one, Vern. Great looking still. BV

It does kind of like they could be clearing it for demolition, but it sure would be great if someone would actually be readying for redoing the place. I guess nothing lasts forever. So glad you got such a nice shot of it.

Nice shot Vern. At the very least there will be this documentary image. I am sure you're liking this camera and lens combination.

I hope it gets rescued, but it sounds unlikely. Super capture of it all the same!

Not looking hopeful...which would be a pity. A great photo. V

It's curious how age gives special appeal to such structures.

It may be worn out- still, it does look simply beautiful! ~V~

That’s what they call move in ready!

Hope this is for restoration not total destruction, a bit sad that everyone is so quick to get rid of the old and bring in the new, which generally has no character. This old barn has so much character that needs to be brought out and shown.

yes this view is so sad....Hope they can rebuild it.V
