This is the now un-used P&O Ferry terminal in Fleetwood, Lancashire. If i remember correctly this was last used in late 2010.
Sad sight to see this just decaying away with no plans in sight for re-use.
The last of the old Transbay bus terminal. Like many people in the area, I have many memories of this place. It was opened, with much fanfare in 1953, and for the next half century served as the main terminus for busses in and out of the city. the lower levels were quickly given over to homeless who would sit about there all day long, and I'm sure many very sad life stories ended there over the decades. There were several shop spaces in the building, including my first barber in San Francisco and an odd little Chinese diner I ate at a few times, run by an eccentric and talkative little lady.
I'm frankly surprised that there wasn't more of an outcry to save the building, with its early modernist lines, its riveted steel arches over carrying the building over the streets, it's neat little postwar interior trim details, and it's breathtaking central nave, which one entered--quite dramatically--by ramps from the darkened ground floor. Unfortunately, most people, when they think of Transbay terminal, only think of it as a homeless hangout, even though that is due to the way the place was run, not the building itself. If the new building is run the same way, it will soon become a vast homeless encampment as well.
As for the new building, it's supposed to be quite something. Besides serving busses, it will also accommodate light rail lines and be a big pedestrian mall as well. The rubble from the old building will be used as fill.
Terminal Two at the Salt Lake City International Airport. Remodeled with new Delta signage and overhead LCD's for directing passenger traffic.

A shot of the ceiling in the main terminal of Cincinnati's Union Station, now incorporating three museums under one roof. A neat place to visit.
