Today, Jeff, Barb and I checked out an old building here in Centreville. Having driven past it for about 2 years, I knew it was abandoned and had been reading a thread on line which is hilarious. It had once been a film developing and storage company and before that The Broadmoor Motel. I had always been curious about what was left of the place and wanted to scope it out. We had to cross snow that was still over a foot deep which made traversing the field a great workout.
The old motel sign is still on top of the building.
Peering through the windows, we could see old computers and film processing machines. We weren't able to access any of the buildings so contented ourselves with just looking through the glass and walking around.
Around the back of the building were some old trailers which were used as storage. One was wide open with boxes of film stacked inside.
This looked like it was a cutting/editing room.
I got a couple of interesting shots using this mirror and a completely unaware Barb. We completed our investigations and racked this one up to be the shortest exploration ever. I was satisfied though that I'd checked the place out and could now drive by without wondering every time what was back there.
