Roads To Nowhere


Photographic images of abandoned sites and ruins from the industrial fringe of our cities and landscapes. Cemeteries, asylums, hospitals, schools, prisons, churches, boatyards, factories etc. — if they are abandoned, in ruin or simply "gone wild," we would love to see your site.

The Hudson River Line opened in 1849. Below 30th Street, railroad cars drawn by horses funneled goods from the West Side railyards to Spring Street, with stops that today's subway riders will recognize: 23rd Street, 14th, Christopher. Steam engines replaced horses in 1867. 1934 saw the completion of the elevated West Side Freight Line. Decline and fall of the line in the 1960's to 1980's.
