Forgotten Project



"181 Indiana"

Not so much forgotten as never realized. I took a whole bunch of shots about a year ago for a project called "Forgotten Spaces." "181 Indiana" was of one of the many abandoned and rotting places in Shenandoah until recently and was actually at the end of the street my mother and father live on. I also took photos of some of the old colleries in Schuylkill County... it's always fun crawling where you don't belong...AND I can always get my mom to go with me, because she loves lookin' at old, weird stuff. The buildings I photographed had been standing abandoned my whole life--almost 30 years, until very recently. It seems every time I revisit my hometown, another one of these places has been razed. Maybe it's time to revisit "Forgotten Spaces."
