Puerto Rico Abandonment
- An abandoned military hangar in Puerto Rico. Photographed in the summer of 2012. All shots taken on Canon D60 Digital Camera with SIGMA 17-50 MM lens.
- When visiting a friend in Puerto Rico to attend her wedding, I got an opportunity to visit this abandoned military hangar. The fiancee of my friend is also a passionate photographer, and he wanted me to see this location because he knew that I also appreciated abandoned landscapes.
The outside of the facility. Apparently the facility was abandoned less than a dozen years ago, and yet it looks like it has been standing this way for far longer. It is astounding and disturbing how quickly our architecture can erode.
A surprising amount of trash can be found inside the facility. Also, a small staircase leading to nowhere.
The toilet was dislodged from its original location.
The original location of the toilet, now eroded and unrecognizable.
An armchair sits completely torn apart and alone in the center of the hangar.- One cannot help but wonder why on earth a baby boy's shoe is sitting here, as though waiting to be put on.
