Took this straight out of the Fuji X Half with no edits, just processed by the camera’s presets. This spot at Bailey and Broadway in Buffalo NY was once the industrial heartbeat of the city, a hub of manufacturing and commerce from the 1940s through the 1980s. The architecture still whispers stories of that era, even as the area now sits quiet and overlooked. There's something haunting and beautiful in the way the light hits these forgotten corners of a once booming city.

Wanted to post something so went through some images from a recent visit. Decided to do a little black and white with some additional tweaks.

“Fourth place in the great motor classic at Indianapolis is won by ‘Fer-de-Lance,’ a special. Who is the builder of the marvel? The builder, a man of humble origin, suddenly finds that he is famous and the success of his car is assured.
“Money, power and position are his, but – ‘What profiteth a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?’
“So begins this tense drama of modern American industry. Interest is added to the story when it is remembered that it might easily be the life story of any one of several of our great present-day business men.” [From the blurb on the dustjacket]
[Note: This is an early novel about the motor industry, focusing on the Fer-de-Lance sports car and automobile manufacturing. There has never been a real-world Fer-de-Lance sports car, but it is now the name of a car model in the Saints Row video game franchise.]
Peebles Island State Park, Waterford, NY. Part of the old Cluett Peabody & Company's shirt bleaching facility, where the process to produce pre-shrunk garments was invented in the early 20th century.
