Despite trying to forget about the long winter we are emerging from here in Illinois, I decided to post some of the pictures from a little exploration back in March.
I happened across this fantastically abandoned location while wandering through some of the backroads. The rows and rows of glass bottle puzzled me, sitting untouched for who knows how long until little bit of research informed me of the incredible glass factory that once stood before a fire some years back.
Someone had graciously left a ladder in order for me to hoist myself up to the second floor.
Part of the warehouse was still standing, though in a less than perfect state. The partially demolished building, though, let in just enough snow and light to get this shot.
