I imagine this apartment building at one time was home to various families and once saw good times. Now it lies in shambles. The No Trespassing sign caught my eye. At first, I thought would anyone really have to put a no trespassing sign on this place. Then, I realized that this was meant for some poor unfortunate souls that use this place as some kind of refuge. Strange isn't it?

When I opened this, I just said "wow!". It is sad to see what was once a fine building in such sad shape. Odds are there are homeless people using it as a refuge against the weather and safe harbor from the perils of the street. Kim @ 2007-11-12 17:51:15
It is a very beautiful building. You caught all the tones beautifully and sharply. Michael Rawluk @ 2007-11-12 19:28:58
An exceptional image and the numerous amount of homeless people is all too common. It's sad how our society has become accustomed to it and those of us who can pity it are oft time ridiculed. Some people think all the homeless could do better. While I'm certain that some could, I'm just as certain that there are those in unfortunate circumstances that any of us could wind up in. sherri @ 2007-11-12 23:09:56
This snap seems to awesomely chaotic! I don't know where to start and stop looking :). Very nicely composed. AC @ 2007-11-13 08:26:32
Awesome shot! It's a very cool place. There's so many things in the picture to look at. Well spotted! Marianne @ 2007-11-13 12:42:34
One thing that makes this a very powerful image is the curiosity it invokes from the viewer.
There are just enough clues to make me wonder about its history and its present.
