How buildings are dying
Last November I posted a short report called "It's time to say goodbye" (http://vyrud.livejournal.com/132314.html#cutid1) about the former textile factory that will be demolished. Two days ago I had the opportunity to see the process in action and to compare the area before and now (the after only will be).
Late October 2011:
Early April 2012:
The process of demolition started in late January or early February. Still it isn't completed but this time I decided to compare the area before and now.
Last Autumn the former administrative building was nearly "alive":
Now this is the last part of the factory that is still under the demolition:
Then and now:
Special machines are working:
This view from October:
And the same place now:
What's interesting: the demolition still under way but the construction of new building has just started - you can clearly see the construction of the new foundation:
Old power station in October still stood:
And now the place is empty:
And only small part of the factory today looks very similar at it looked in October. Then and now:
Spring of changes for a local place ....
