Not satisfied with looking at still pictures? Then check out this [very long] video that Simon put together of all of the movies he shot while we were both at the Red Hook grain factory/terminal this past weekend.

This past Saturday, Simon and I ventured into the abandoned grain factory in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The building is a massive eye-sore in the neighborhood because of its dilapidated state as well as its enormous size jutting out from the piers. There are apparently some plans floating in the air to turn it into a cement factory or storage facility, but as of April 2009, the work on this proposed project has yet to begin.
So for now, the building sits abandoned along the New York harbor which connects into the Atlantic Ocean. My story of entering its grounds is inside, but if all you want to see are the pictures, then check them out over at hermanyung.com.

Who knew grain factories were this high? That’s the drop to your death if you take one misstep. There was no fooling around here.
Full set of pictures coming soon…

If you’re wondering why there have been no posts today, it’s because I’ve been here.
More pictures to come so stay tuned.
