Forgotten Texas: 15 Abandoned Places Nature Is Reclaiming Posted in Texas April 24, 2015 by Kristen Lawrence Texas is home to a lot of ghost towns, and with forgotten towns comes boarded-up, overgrown, forgotten buildings, too. These buildings once housed thriving businesses, homes, and attractions, but now we can only speculate about the memories made as nature devours the man-made structures. 1) The Wurzbach House in Rio Medina: it once housed early settlers of the area, but now only dust and sprawling tree roots settle in their place. 2) Mosheim School: the crumbling ruins of a school once teeming with children sits in the small town of Mosheim near Waco. 3) A boarded-up, moss-covered Administration Building in Waco. 4) Falling Church located in South Bend: it looks on the verge of collapse, but the fragile wood stands strong against the mighty forces of nature. 5) Abandoned store in Duffau, Texas. 6) The trees surrounding this abandoned home in Texola whisper their secrets about what lies inside. 13) J.P.

It was part of Gustavus Swift’s family of companies and was in operation from about 1902 to 1971. It soon fell into disrepair due to numerous fires from trespassing vagrants, gang activity and graffiti taggers. View Swift Meat Packing Plant in a larger map There are still several large buildings on the property that are open to some urban exploring though care should be taken, it’s quite apparent that numerous homeless have taken up residence here. I didn’t do this excursion alone. It really puts some nightmarish Freddy Kruger/Halloween thoughts in your head. The names I’m giving these buildings are for reference and based on the order we entered them or from what they looked like. It had a lot of internal damage from fires and the second level wasn’t accessible. If you will notice, the fourth floor of Processing 4 has no windows. Like this: Like Loading...

Photos of a Road Trip Home, With Pit Stops in the Abandoned Past An abandoned turnpike in Pennsylvania. During his visit, Seelie discovered that the abandoned roadway goes on for many miles, and becomes a strangely serene nature walk. (All Photos: Tod Seelie) This photo essay is one of a five-part series with Atlas Obscura and Olympus. New York-based photographer Tod Seelie grew up in the suburban environs of Cleveland, Ohio. En route, he photographed other sites of urban decay that dot the journey between New York and Ohio: an abandoned turnpike and a trolley graveyard in Pennsylvania; an observatory that had closed in 1983, with rusted domed roof; a disused church; and Concrete City, company housing built for mining employees in 1911 that still stands, grown over with weeds. The abandoned turnpike has several long tunnels carving through the mountains. A trolley graveyard in Pennsylvania. The interior of one of the trolleys that had started to lean heavily as the floor collapsed. The dome of an old observatory in Cleveland, Ohio.
Modern Industrial Design and Future Technology - Tuvie USS Sachem Ruins The Celt, USS Sachem, USS Phenakite, Sightseer, and the Circle Line V. No matter what this ruinous ship was once called, it is now simply the Ghost Ship. Abandoned off of Lawrenceburg, Indiana in 1987, the ship that is now a favorite destination for kayakers was once an award winning navy ship that served proudly during both world wars. It served as a backdrop in a Madonna video, shuttled Thomas Edison about while he conducted war experiments, and attended Ronald Reagan's re-lighting of the Statue of Liberty's torch. Launched in 1902, the ship was originally intended as a luxury ride for a railroad mogul. 186 ft. of opulent yacht, the steam powered ship was a toy for the rich. The Sachem became the USS Sachem when war erupted and the Navy acquired the small, speedy vessel to combat the German U-boats and countless submarines wreaking havoc on British-American supply lines. Edison used the ship as a place to conduct his experiments on creative ways to destroy the sub threats.
