This has been the device used to keep the Cold Storage building's doors closed for as long as I can remember. I always thought it looked kind of random but neat, at the same time.

The old Central Warehouse in Albany.
Look closely and you'll see a staircase snaking past the middle stack of windows. I climbed all of them several years ago, and some of the steps were a little dicey even then.
The hulking cold-storage building was looking really beat when I shot this image at the end of 2021, but it got worse: Decades of neglect reached a crisis point in the summer of 2022 as chunks of concrete flaked off onto an adjacent railroad right-of-way, and the building finally was stripped from its owner a few months later.
The new owners have grand plans like the previous one did, but they have an actual track record of following through on their plans.
There are a variety of ways to beat the summer heat if you don’t have air conditioning, however, I told the kids that this is going a bit to far!

The most interesting part of this massive old cold storage warehouse is a siding that ran right off the old New York Central line into a lower floor. The rails are long gone and the portal is probably rusted invincibly shut.
This building looks like a former gas station. In its last incarnation, though, it was an ice and cold storage business, as suggested by the door on the right front. For a town of around 1500 residents, there seem to have been lots of capacity for ice sales (there's also the old abandoned Ice Plant). I suppose with all the art shows and other events that take place in the small desert town, demand for ice can be high.

Shot at dusk on our last day at Banes Grove. A reminder of the time when the grove was productive.

A Chicago South Shore & South Bend train crosses the former Rock Island (now Metra) line to LaSalle Street station at 16th Street Tower in Chicago. The cold storage warehouse in the background has since been converted into condos.
The complex formerly housing Richwill Enterprises, Inc. consists of a 183,000 square-foot warehouse/cold-storage facility and 6,644 square-foot office building. Constructed in 1917, the property was sold in December 2019 for $3.5 million.
Like the other buildings here on the ranch, this was built to last.

On Thursday afternoon, I had to run out to Kansas City for an errand, and while on my way, I heard that the streetcars would be out for some testing, so I decided that given the beautiful afternoon, it would be worth it to head on down to grab some shots.
Here's the first of the batch that I was able to get. It's of car #801 rolling west along 3rd St. on the north side of the City Market. If you look to the right, you'll notice the couple on the right watching it roll by. Even still, these cars are garnering looks and photographs from the locals whenever they're out.

I went up to Wisbech last night to see a photo exhibition featuring some of Bob Davis', work which incidently was very good, and got in a few shots of my own on the way back. This building site has all the potential for being the proverbial carbuncle in this flat fenland landscape.

We're viewing a northbound CTA Brown Line train at The Lockup, near Grace and Lincoln. In my twisted mind, I couldn't help but hear those rallying cries from the Trump campaign. Lock her up! Lock her up! Could Hillary be in this building? Thinking more about it, I doubt it. I think she would do better in cold storage.
