Tower of doom
The day before the demolition of blast furnace nr. 6 in Liége - Seraing (Belgium).
Untill 2014 this blast furnace provided work for thousands of peoples. Now that he is extinguished he looks like a gloomy tower of doom.
Many thousands of workers are doomed to unemployment in this already poor region.
This region with its heavy industry has fallen prey to globalization. Producers relocate to the low-wage countries where safety, the environment and labour costs are not taken as closely.
But however, he won't be there after tomorrow!
