There’s a good amount of abandoned places near-ish to where I live. One of these places is a concrete/cement factory type thing.

Someone posted about this place on uer.com (Urban Exploration Resource) so I did some investigating. Took me awhile but I got a message to the representative of the owners. unfortunately they won’t let me in 😑.

Look at how cool this place is?!?!! I wanna go inside.. so bad..

Oh and here’s the thing, I totally could, there’s a hole in the fence. I’m just a bit salty about it.

I’m not quite sure what they plan to do with the place, I know they’ve been working on some apartments nearby. I think it would be really cool to revisit places that were once abandoned and see how they look all fixed up.

Interesting photos, it's always fascinating to look at abandoned sites. There is a huge complex outside Sandwich in south east England where there was a Pfizer's factory. It was so huge, on both sides of the road, the company paid the local authority to build a new bypass road so that people wouldn't drive through the site. It's like a ghost town now.

Nice photography @lizgore..i hope you are enjoying your stay on steemit? You can join our project @goldenproject on discord to associate with other youths and also to learn more about the steem blockchain....we are also discussing ways in which we youths can make a positive impact on the steem block chain... You can DM at jamesmovic via discord or steem.chat so you can be added to the project's whatsapp group if you don't use the discord app..

Damn I didn't even know there was something like that. I mean the urban resources thing of course. Anyways, I heard that you're a teen from someone and I was coming to check you out. If you're interested, i'm working on a teen steem community...cause all of us are just so spread out across this platform I can barely find any. If you're interested and/or know any teens that might be interested on the platform, discord me at @Iamturtless#0853. I hope to hear from you!
