The old water tower

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

There is one old abandoned factory in Khabarovsk.Built as early as the end of the 19th century as a defense enterprise for the repair of artillery and other military weapons, that produced both military and civilian products during the Soviet period, became bankrupt at the beginning of this century and is now sold piece by piece as real estate.For example, in the building of a former local garrison church, there is now some sort of semi-working bakery.
But the real citadel from the past is the water tower, miraculously preserved without any significant changes.

The quality of the bricks produced and the masonry executed raises admiration after a century.
Welcome to the Russian Far East- the place full of architectural heritage of the past and before last century.
The exact coordinates of the object and its location on Google maps are below

Nice picture, upvoted. I like how the sun enlightes the building.

Thank you.The plant is located on the bank of the river, so there is nothing to prevent the rays of the sun.
