Description


This is another shot of the demolition of that building in the 3300 block of West Lawrence Avenue that I'd featured in a number of my previous posts. This was near the very end of the demolition, when there was very little of the building still standing. I found it curious that even though the entire facade had been removed by this point, there was still a lone air-conditioner basket attached to a girder. This picture was made in the Albany Park area of Chicago on March 5th, 2008.

I was wondering when you were gonna get around to posting this. I really love the POV here and that complicated urban jumble that I'm so fond of lately. Chicago is quite a jumbled city when you stop and think about it. And this is a perfect example of that. There are horizontals, verticals, diagonals, jiggly bits and jagged bits, color, more color, and shadows. In short, a jumble, but it all works perfectly in this photo. Well seen. And that air conditioner basket looks a wee bit lonely, as does the intact door that it's hovering on top of. Funny...there's NO building, but there's a door! Well seen. Great shot!

Great shot-----nothing like a bit of urban decay for something like this. Who knows when someone would need that basket??!!

I'm sure there are people who would like to live in it if it were easier to get into!

As an abstract composition, this kicks serious behind! I love the angles and the division of space. The remaining bits of glass adds a sort of layered effect that I really like. Great image!
