Abandoned Industrial Places

Once these industrial spaces were celebrated and thriving; now, they're ghostly and forlorn. Ranging from Cuba's unfinished nuclear power station to English atomic test sites, from Nevada's silver towns to a French coal-washing facility, from a sugar factory in Belgrade to a Japanese mining island, and, yes, Chernobyl, Abandoned Industrial Places captures these imposing, often eerie, structures. Some are magnificent pieces of architecture, others appear like ragged pieces of piping out of science fiction, but each one tells a fascinating story.
