The Battery Park Development www.batteryparkcleveland.com is located on the northshore of Cleveland's nearwest side in the Detroit Shoreway neighborhood which is very up and coming as they say. The site is currently under development and I had the chance to sneak in to the powerhouse and snap a few shots before renovation begins.

These next few are just a few more details of the interior.
From what I understand this will house a community center, gourmet restaurant and a deli of sorts for those in the neighborhood. Also check out dsdo.org for more info on...
A nice shot of the East Bank furnace...
Empty tracks leading away from the caboose
Another shot of the blast furnace
This flatbed unit was also in the trainyard looking very lonely and abandoned
A few chemical tanks on the East bank.
That's it for the LTV spot for now... I just shot a few more of the area along with several from the adjacent Slavic Village neighborhood which I will try to upload soon! Hope you like these
On the way to work this morning, I passed this bed of lovely, blooming hydrangeas, and couldnt resist snapping a cameraphone photo of them. I suppose spring has finally sprung in Brooklyn!
