Right down the street from my house (which turned 100 this year) we have a big apartment complex that was built to retain and match what was left of an old school that pretty much burned to the ground. There are a few communities that believe in the "level and rebuild" method, but Salt Lake fights hard to keep the old buildings around. One of the reasons I like it here.Max Sartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271198231897203659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-53008915808439757592012-09-08T15:10:32.818-04:002012-09-08T15:10:32.818-04:00decay, death, recycledecay, death, recyclePrettypics123https://www.blogger.com/profile/05002015227586327112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-1466849397979927752012-09-08T10:43:37.698-04:002012-09-08T10:43:37.698-04:00Have u heard of Helms Bakery?

Back in the day their trucks would travel the neighborhoods- Helms carried breads, pastries, etc... they were a mother's dream when she would realize she didn't have a loaf of bread or hot dog buns... Helms Bakery is no longer around, but they kept the factory where they produced the bake goods and turned it into a place where vendors could sell their wares.. They also use it for other venues.. I love that building... 3 words: art, soul, history..Kalei's Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12331539743751163269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-4396917643970938242012-09-08T10:07:24.570-04:002012-09-08T10:07:24.570-04:00Great reflection shot. :)

Because the myopic vision of local governments can only see what could be, and rarely embrace what was. And someone should see what was too.<br /><br />Here is my first shot of that building. Will get around to posting more for sure.<br />https://plus.google.com/104770776614693816879/posts/Gw6G5FT6enEMike Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14226759908852992699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-80683585135799756672012-09-08T09:48:11.349-04:002012-09-08T09:48:11.349-04:00MASS MoCA comes to mind.

There's also another building in North Adams that was turned into affordable housing. http://www.archstreetdevelopment.net/project_clark_biscuit.htmljohttp://berkshirestrails.comnoreply@blogger.com
