POWcityblog: you make a valid point about the size of the audience seeing this picture but the main point is that there there is a dignity/permission issue here. LiveJournal Urban Decay had a huge fuss a......

Elicar: If something is dear to you, take care of it. Nobody cared ENOUGH for Benny Farms. Otherwise, it would not be in such a state of disrepair. Would you rather be sentimental and let the mosntrosity......

upfromflames: I was a little disappointed at your original presumption that the mysterious empty spaces in Newark once held decayed housing full of junkies. Actually, some of them used to contain thriving neighborhoods, some Italian white,......

j.walthers@timesnewsweekly.com: Thank you for your interest. I would like to start with a very brief history of Bushwick to establish both philosophy and development for use as foundation to buttress the argument that the communities of......

in response to: I\'ve lived in Bushwick for just about fifteen years by Jeanne M.

Sirhcbre: I find it's best not to rely on nostalgia, it tends to be deceptive whereas it likes to leave out many of the bad parts of the past and glorify the good. Before God......

in response to: Murder at Dawson College by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: You have a good eye. You might also want to consider wandering around Point St Charles. A classic case of urban decay meets gentrification. Charlevoix Metro station is in the point....

in response to: Beaudoin Street by CE

EvilGentleman: For a derelict building with numerous broken windows, there sure are tidy surroundings. I dunno whether it could be considered an eyesore or a trasure, but it sure fits on citynoise. Urban decay sure seems......

in response to: Dereliction by Cameo

aer suzuki: "Public Transportation is a good thing for Toronto. Lots of slate sky, concrete, asphalt, brick and steel...they took paradise and made a concrete jungle for sure." Ok. Maybe Toronto's different but here in Seattle they used......

in response to: Urban Decay by Chris Fuerth

Genaro: During the late 1940's and 50's, many of The Manhattan Elite thought it proper in calling the less popular working or the poor social White under class, WHITE TRASH! This would also include Whites who......

Ruairķ: Hi Jamie Just wondered - what area of london are you from? I am originally from Lisnaskea but live in London now. I have had the idea of going round to to your neighbourhood and taking photos of......

Jamie: Lawrence i love the perspective in your photos, and i love the urban decay also...

in response to: Dilapidated by Lawrence

schatbot mission: kilgore, i wouldn't call toronto a paridise. At least not in the last hundred years. As far as URBAN decay, i dont see where it is. In terms of world decay I'd say good shot....

Peter: nice. very "urban decay"....

in response to: archaic by fuzzytank

pillboxer: Well, that would look like Detroit except they don't like to tear down abandoned buildings. They just like to let them sit and decay to give urban explorers and graffiti artists places to poke......

Peter: eh, i find urban decay fascinating... especially stuff from europe....

in response to: good runner, needs a little work by elaine

UnlimitedLou: words AND pictures say so much more ! Reassuring to know that even upmarket 'London-by-the-sea' isn't above a bit of extremely un-picteuresque squalor...Good old Urban Decay - doesn't turn it's unbiquitous nose up at......
