Triangle Life Science Center

My first abandoned spaces expedition in RTP, NC landed me at the now demolished Triangle Life Science Center. These photos are from February 2010. The building was demolished shortly after. There are plenty more photos here. I hope you enjoy.

An Old Friend

For a while I had this project exploring abandoned buildings and public space in Wilmington, NC [34°13′24″N 77°54′44″W]. If you’re interested you can read about a couple of my experiences here. Since moving I haven’t really kept up with the picture taking/urban exploring activities but I’m still interested in these forgotten places. Just for kicks, I’ve decided to post some pictures of the building that first sparked my interests in abandoned buildings.

Almont Shipping Terminal

Fortunately I was able to explore these abandoned warehouses/shipping terminals on the Cape Fear River in Wilmington, NC  [34°13′24″N 77°54′44″W] just weeks before they were demolished. I wrote about my experience here.

The City on the Rise

Have you ever wondered what one of the most impoverished cities in America looks like? Now you can. Rocky Mount, NC was recently named one of America’s top 10 impoverished cities by Forbes Magazine and as someone who is familiar with the area, this is not surprising.
