You may have already noticed this decrepit bulding lurking in the background of pictures of ferries and cruise ships. This is one of our most conspicuous cases of decay: a group of old silos inside the Porto Mediceo which is hardly a welcoming sight for any tourist coming from the sea.
Some wanted to tear down the building, others would have liked to transform it in a hotel: it would obviously stay there forever...
Kind of looks like something out of Star Wars.
ReplyDeleteLooks more like a prison.
ReplyDeleteA very industrial looking building and not attractive at all.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of a not so attractive structure.
ReplyDeleteI don't see that as a hotel. It is either going to stay as it is and continuing to deteriorate, or someone is going to start hanging advertising signs off it.
ReplyDeleteLike most buildings, I think that it could be transformed into something more attractive, the location is certainly perfect for a hotel. But if they don't, then tear it down...
ReplyDeleteAt least they are good for holding up antennas.
ReplyDeleteNon รจ certo una gran bellezza...speriamo che lo recuperino e ne facciano qualcosa di bello. Ciao, Arianna
ReplyDeleteIt would be a great project if developed and turn into a hotel.
ReplyDeleteNot a welcoming sight indeed...
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the the building of the prison of Bolzano.
RE to your comment on BDP: German is one thing, South Tyrolean dialect another ... :)
Karl - Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat decay shots, VP!
ReplyDeleteWould have been a perfect location to do some filming..
