On my way to not much, while driving through the middle of nowhere, I came to a stop light and on my left this remarkable sight loomed. Whatever it may have been, it now stands as deco art. Photo treats, in the middle of nowhere.
LOL, that apparently is how I will measure my wealth, by the number of followers. And I love them all (except for you), even if most of them never look at my work.
I never realized how much I love finding old, decaying structures. Maybe there’s a correlation between my aging, and my fascination with aging buildings. Some of these old building still look good on the outside, no matter what’s going on inside. Sort of like me!
I love the old buildings you photograph. I hope the trend of “upcycling” extends further to old buildings, keeping their integrity but giving them new life.
Laughing here, Mike…because when I saw the title in my e-mail, I automatically thought ‘greenhouse’! Lo and behold…what you came up with! It’s a seriously interesting building.
Our small town “The City of Duncan” has loads of these facades in its downtown. Coming here from Europe so long ago I thought I had found the Wild West….. Great find Great photo.
At last, I have achieved my goal to be the first that liked one of your photo’s! You have so many followers this has proved to be a difficult task!

And there I read the title and expected lots of glass with tomato plants residing inside! This is a far different green-house!

My guess is that there are things residing inside and they are not tomato plants! Hi Jude.

What an extraordinary building. From the wee bit you can see of the back of the building, it looks as if that big front shape is just stuck on.

Yes it is a facade, I think. Hi Lorna.
