I cannot identify a particular style or type of design, but I do find old buildings and constructs to be inherently interesting.

phoenixcomet | 3 reseñas más. | Aug 31, 2009 | A haunting, well-designed book, rich in moving photographs of buildings abandoned and forgotten: the railroad depot in Detroit, mansions in upstate New York, an entire small town in Pennsylvania.

The text is brief but invites you to consider the life and death of buildings, and the way once-vital places are allowed to deteriorate and fall into ruin. A section on 'Reincarnations,' on now-rehabilitated ruined buildings, like the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, and the beloved Stone Arch bridge in my own Minneapolis, provides some hope, but the tone in general is hushed: don't disturb the dead.
