Lime Tape

WET PAINT sign

Usually, the tape used to attached the WET PAINT signs is blue or yellowish masking tape.  This lime green tape went well with the red lettering, making for a watermelon feel.

Light wrap

Afternoon sunlight

Sunlight streaming through the windows of the architect's office at the re-purposed factory building creates a wrap of light and shadow.

Rusty water and gas

Water utility cover

Bingham Taylor gas utility cover

Installed in the sidewalk beneath our feet, these cast iron utility covers are located in an area of a re-purposed site that has almost no foot traffic.  The lack of sole buffing has allowed them to acquire a patina of iron oxide.

The manufacturer of the WATER cover is not known.  The GAS cover is made by Bingham & Taylor; however the cover does not include the "&" or "and" that usually seen as part of their name on their covers.

River reverie

Wriver wrevere-ee

The bridge across the river carried a railroad spur to the factory building.  On one side, the former factories have been re-purposed for offices, and and there is planned re-purposement on the other.  Still, the river flows and greenery grows. 

Door mop

Patina plug

Plugged pipe

The patina of the plug and pipe contrasts with rust and the wet concrete at the abandoned dock.

Pale blue patina

Water faucet

This outdoor water faucet is on the side of a building at the abandoned dock.  The sunlight-cast shadow, the faucet, and the cinder blocks create a pleasing variety of shapes and colors.

Rusted and abandoned

Rusty eye bolt

The rust around this eye bolt creates a pattern and color that contrasts sharply with the grey cement of this abandoned dock.
