I used to drive by this enormous electrical supply company and warehouse almost every day as it was on my route to work. One night there was a fire and the entire city block sized building was gutted. Due to all sorts of problems the site stood abandoned for over ten years and accumlulated all sorts of trash and graffiti, which was odd as it was in a bustling industrial and business area where property was at a premium. I visited it several times before the ruins were finally razed about five years ago. These pictures were taken near the golden hour after a downpour earlier in the day when most of the floor was covered with a water pool several inches deep. One of these photos I entered in a contest here a few years back, the rest I've never shown before. It was an interesting place! I came across these when considering a contest entry.

I took many more photos but these were the best "reflection" pics. Might show those later.
