While you may not see this building facade exactly at Bethlehem Steel in Bethlehem Pennsylvania, it's close. Perhaps you see what I've done to expand the original 16 window panels to 30, with some subtle changes to the individual panes of course. The missing panes appear to me as the missing workers.

Hengelo, The Netherlands
The old factory of Hazemeijer Hengelo is located in the industrial heart of Overijssel, Hengelo. In the past, electric motors were made there. It buzzed with sound and activity for more than 100 years. The old former factory buildings have now grown into a fully-fledged event location.

Factory Butte is a desolate and beautiful area - I was there on Memorial Day Weekend (an American holiday honoring military personnel who died while serving in the US Armed Forces). I saw less than ten other people.
The butte was named by earlier settlers who thought it looked like the Provo Woolen Mill factory building.
My prior post was a close up of this landscape.

One of the most popular quotes from the TV Peaky Blinders:- from Tommy Shelby: "I don't pay for suits. My suits are on the house or the house burns down."
I just love these cool Street Artists, which one can find around the urban streets of Digbeth, and once was known as Birmingham’s industrial quarter, Digbeth’s factory buildings have been transformed in recent years. Today, the area is a hub of culture and creative enterprise with galleries, nightclubs, pubs and restaurants waiting to be discovered.
It also has deep Irish cultural roots that date back to its foundation. In fact, Digbeth is often known as Birmingham's Irish Quarter.
And also, once a year the Peaky Blinder fans, have a festival to keep them alive!
Many thanks for your cool comments and compliments from you here, my flickr friends !!!
When you see a strong blue tone to photographs, it could be that the photographer has taken advantage of the blue hour. That’s a time of day when the sun has just set or is about to rise, when the sky overhead takes on a deep blue color, and when the landscape is suffused with bluish light. The blue hour is a good time to take photos of the moon, because then the moon’s glare isn’t so bright in contrast to the sky.

I could subtitle this shot, "An elegy after Giorgio de Chirico".
In this photograph I tried to create the somewhat nostalgic and claustrophobic feel of many of de Chirico's early surrealistic paintings. The old water tower and purification plant stands against the sky which represents a lost past (or is it the future?). On the right hand side the wall of the newer factory building (which is also about to be demolished) is leaning in and creating that claustrophobic sense I was looking for.

Location: Historic Gastown
Building: Leckie Building
The lights and colours are constantly changing on this building in different shades of red, purple and blue.
The Leckie Building is a massive cubic seven-storey Edwardian era warehouse/factory building located at the southeast corner of Cambie and Water Streets in the historic district of Gastown. Built in 1908 and a large addition to the east was constructed in 1913. Exterior: brick and granite. Internal structure: built of massive timber elements.
Gastown is the historic core of Vancouver, and is the city's earliest, most historic area of commercial buildings and warehouses.
The Leckie Building is representative of the importance of Gastown as the trans-shipment point between the terminus of the railway and Pacific shipping routes, and the consequent expansion of Vancouver into western Canada's predominant commercial centre in the early 20th century

Gastown is the original settlement that became the core of the creation of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Currently, it is a national historic site and a neighbourhood in the northwest end of Downtown Eastside, adjacent to Downtown Vancouver.
Its historical boundaries were the waterfront (now Water Street and the CPR tracks), Columbia Street, Hastings Street, and Cambie Street, which were the borders of the 1870 townsite survey, the proper name and postal address of which was Granville, B.I. ("Burrard Inlet"). The official boundary[citation needed] does not include most of Hastings Street except for the Woodward's and Dominion Buildings, and stretches east past Columbia St., to the laneway running parallel to the west side of Main Street.

This house had been in a derelict condition for quite a few years. It was so sad to drive past it. It’s in a somewhat rundown community. But someone found it, obviously fell in love with it, and this is what it looks like today. There is a factory building across from it. An old red brick Mill that got converted to condos quite a few years ago. More than likely this house was built for the owner of the Mill.
Here we have an abandoned second hand shop with much of the merchandise simply left behind when the shop closed up for good over ten years ago. Calendars on the wall in the office read 2008. Housed in the old Wells Lamont glove factory building in Louisiana Missouri, this place was huge. It housed multiple dealers with a wide variety of merchandise. It even had a restaurant inside. The restaurant menu is still hanging above the order counter with it’s outdated prices. There is old stuff strewn about every where making it hard to see the places where the wooden shop floor has rotted through from a leaking roof. It is a dangerous place to explore. Be careful! Such are the shifting sands of business entrepreneurship. The price tags now are meaningless.
Norrköping is a beautiful city with an amazing waterscape, a well-preserved old industrial landscape. Spinning mills, cotton factories and a variety of other industries were established along the rapids of Motala Ström in the 17th century and onwards. It was water power from the river and the good harbour that made very rapid industrial growth possible. Especially the textile industry boomed, which is why Norrköping has acquired the nickname “Sweden’s Manchester”. The last thumping from the looms was heard in the mid 1970’s, and these days none of the impressive factory buildings are used the way they were intended. The city has put a lot of resources into preserving this area with beautiful walkways along the water and several interesting museums.

A ten minute walk from my front door is the view of the City of Nottingham skyline. I took this for the colours in the sky which were not dramatic but pretty. I don't know whether it was misty or pollution but unless it is windy, which it wasn't the view is almost always hazy. Disappointingly this particular morning was no exception so getting up fairly early made no difference. My hope was that the buildings would show up clearly but they didn't...

Born in England Chambers worked as a prolific marine and landscape painter in the United States between 1832 and about 1866.While Chambers often relied on print sources for his dynamic and brightly colored landscapes,View of Springfield Massachusetts,on the Connecticut River bears a remarkable resemblance to Thomas Cole's The Oxbow of 1836 flic.kr/p/E6e9jc.Cole presents a bifurcated landscape of wilderness and settled land,Chambers contrasts a dark industrial city of factory buildings with a white city of church spires and,across the river,a scene of cultivated fields, encapsulating many of the emotions of the national landscape.
The factory building with the clinker facade was built in 1905 according to plans by the Leipzig architect Emil Franz Hänsel for the metal goods factory of the then entrepreneur J. Arthur Dietzold.

Working woollen mill, formally making fine wool cloths for the clothing trade, now firing up the mechanisms for visitors, mainly on Bank holidays and “static” tours of the mill on other occasions. They still make some beautiful tartan cloths and high quality knitting wools. www.coldharbourmill.org.uk/
I lived near this mill as a child, when it was still in production and several children I knew had their first job here, or in other mills run by the same firm.
one of the places which haven't changed much since the beginning of the 20th century or even the end of the 19th c.

Emerson Tower often referenced as Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Tower or the Bromo Tower is a 15-story, landmark 88 m (289 ft) clock tower erected in 1907-1911 at 21 South Eutaw Street, at the northeast corner of Eutaw and West Lombard Streets in downtown Baltimore, Maryland. It was the tallest building in the city from 1911 to 1923, until supplanted by the Citizens National Bank building.
It was the tallest building in Baltimore from 1911 until 1923. The design of the tower along with the original factory building at its base was inspired by the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy, which was seen by Emerson during a tour of Europe in 1900.[8] Systems engineering for the building's original design was completed by Henry Adams. The factory was demolished in 1969 and replaced with a firehouse.
The building features four clock faces adorning the tower's 15th floor on the North, South, East and West sides. Installed by the Seth Thomas Clock Company at an original cost of US$3,965, they are made of translucent white glass and feature the letters B-R-O-M-O S-E-L-T-Z-E-R, with the Roman numerals being less prominent. The dials, which are illuminated at night with LED lights are 24 feet (7.3 meters) in diameter, and the minute and hour hands approximately 12 and 10 feet (3.7 and 3.0 meters) in length respectively. Upon its completion, the Bromo Seltzer Tower featured the largest four dial gravity driven clock in the world. Originally designed to be weight driven, it was electrified in 1975 and restored to the original weight drive in 2017.
The tower originally had a 51 ft (16 m) Bromo-Seltzer bottle,glowing blue and rotating. Weighing 20 tons (18.1 tonnes), it was lined with 314 illuminated w/ lights and topped with a crown on a clear night it could be seen from 20 miles away. The bottle was removed in 1936 because of structural concerns.
Architect: Frank Gehry
The factory hall designed by Frank Gehry is located behind the Vitra Design Museum and is similar in size to the neighbouring Nicholas Grimshaw building. The building contains production rooms, a showroom, the test centre, the canteen and offices.
This factory hall, built in 1989, is the first building Frank Gehry created in Europe.
A short time later, also in 1989, the Vitra Design Museum designed by Frank Gehry was built in the close vicinity of the factory building.
