Abandoned, Ctd

"Places are produced in that wonderful interaction of people, place, narrative, and time. When the people desert these places, narratives are forgotten, ties break, and the place is unmade.... Un-remembering is the enemy of good places and of public history," Robert R. Archibald

joe, i've enjoyed your photos of abandoned buildings . . . we have great ones in Fresno. Lots of them, actually. Several houses on my block. One of them is vacant but impeccably maintained. Another across the street slowly wilts into the landscape.

Thanks, Steven. I'd love to see the buildings in Fresno one day. If I could make a living photographing and essaying abandoned buildings....
