Another Factory Conversion

This one-time commercial bakery has been converted into an artist's loft and studios as is happening all over the city. I like how the bars needed for the commercial usage have been repurposed to hold back a window box of geraniums caught here in the light of early autumn. A little hidden treasure!

  2. It's wonderful that these old buildings are being put to good use. The same thing is happening in many of our cities, too. These not only put old buildings to good use but bring new life to the urban core.

    Nicely composed, the brick and flowers juxtaposed are just right!

  3. Lovely how the flowers soften the brick and iron.

  6. If we can't have them working as factories, this is a good second-best.

  9. Great angle and light on this interesting post. A haven for artists I'd guess.
