There is a place between Ashland Ave. and the river, near the Orange Line train stop where part of a building was torn down. And I find it fascinating. I think it is beautiful. So much so that I took 50 pictures on my way home from work last night, mostly trying to determine what about it so much captures my curiosity. I think it is the stairs and ladders. But also the layers and stories. Or maybe it is the doors and windows. Then again, I like that you can see the outside and inside of the brick building at the same time. And of course, I am intensely drawn to the bright colors. Today I'll post a few pictures, and tomorrow a few more.

Notice the door at the top that now opens into air |

Look at the rebar ladder in the wall |
Crystal, I agree that there is something hauntingly beautiful about this. Looking forward to more pics tomorrow!
