On Sunday afternoon wavestar and I were travelling back from Connecticut, where we were looking at houses, as detailed in earlier posts. Some way into the journey we became hungry and decided to find somewhere that would feed us. Upon taking a likely looking exit and travelling a little way we found ourselves in Bristol, CT. This is a town that seems to consist entirely of a vast wasteland of light industry. It was frightening (and didn't contain much in the way of food, so we retreated, but not before coming over a small hill and encountering this.
This is the Otis Elevator Research Tower. It's 376 feet tall, and made mostly of steel. It would be an impressive sight anywhere, but when you see it standing pretty much on it's own, surrounded by car-parks and scrubby grass, with no other buildings near it, it's quite a sight. More than a little strange.
