Very cold today, however, back to the bottoms again, I just need to visit there several more times to capture all the eye candy. Today I took the Nikkor 28 F/3.5 PC Shift Lens out on the GFX and Laowa Adapter.
Marrk,
I am enjoying this insight into your neck of the woods - particularly those lovely old red-brick buildings and warehouses.
So full of history and character.
With the aid of Google maps I cruised around the streets of 'The Bottoms' but I don't think I'd feel safe being there after dark.
Have many of those old buildings been replaced with modern warehousing or is the new stuff complimentary?

Hi Colin,
I think there are efforts to preserve it, however year by year I think more and more of it erodes away. There is some newer warehouses that have popped up. Safety is an issue, sometimes even during the day. Many ot the cities haunted houses use the buildings down there, The Edge of Hell and the Insane Asylum are two I know of offhand. Some pictures of the outside of the former to come as I get them processed. I used to collect stamps, somewhere I have a collection of old postcards depicting the city bag in the day, lot of history here if one diggs.
