According to old maps, there had been several buildings behind the box factory office building. Now this was almost all that there was left. Judging by the number, it had originally contained workers’ apartments. It was all open doors, but its condition was so rough, I chose not to go in. It didn’t look muchContinue reading “Unboxing A Factory Part II”

The Author’s Villa Part II
Eventually I went to look for another set of stairs from the hall. There I took some shots through the windows. There we have the road running past the house. And there we have a door, which probably hides what I’m looking for. I was right, you know. The stairs were about identical to theContinue reading “The Author’s Villa Part II”
The Author’s Villa Part I
While driving a busy regional road, I spotted something interesting in the woods. And soon I was standing at its gates. A closer look at this small, extremely cute Jugend style villa from the early 20th century. Is that a vintage hoover? And that looks a bit like a former radio. Moving inside. The doorsContinue reading “The Author’s Villa Part I”
Opening Another Season Part III
Moving to the first back room of the building, the one of the children’s store. Looking at things here makes me wonder, if every single door and counter actually is from the very date the place was built. The color of the roof seems to have changed, though. When did they make things like this?Continue reading “Opening Another Season Part III”
Opening Another Season Part II
Our final location of the day was this old building. Back in the days there were similar ones everywhere in Finland. Downstairs there was a business space or two, upstairs there was an apartment or two. I had learned of this place through my dancer friend, who lives nearby. They were wondering, why there wereContinue reading “Opening Another Season Part II”
The Season Is Over Part III
My third and final location for the day was this ordinary yellow house. Surrounded by blocks of flats, its time will probably be over at some point, sooner or later. Although clearly abandoned, there didn’t seem to be a way in from this side. On the other side was a neighbouring house, and the neighbourContinue reading “The Season Is Over Part III”
The Season Is Over Part II
After photographing the city hall, I took a walk away from the city center. There, next to modern business buildings was an old farm of some sort. It consisted of two buildngs. Here is the first one. And here is the second one. Both were clearly abandoned, but unfortunately also pretty well closed. The frontContinue reading “The Season Is Over Part II”
A Grand Day Out Part III
The third location of the day. A former one family house next to an industrial lot. And clearly abandoned, too. The view from the other side revealed the impossibility. The place was well fenced, and the old building was inside the lot. In addition to that there were cameras even in the abandoned building. SoContinue reading “A Grand Day Out Part III”
A Grand Day Out Part II
The second location of the day. And this one I’ve visited before. It’s the 1960’s villa, which I’ve tried to enter two times before. It’s boarded shut. But let’s take a closer look. The place was mostly shut, but there was one small gap inside. There was no bigger gap behind the corner. So theContinue reading “A Grand Day Out Part II”
A Grand Day Out Part I
The autumn was advancing, my urbex season was starting to be over. I collected a group of locations from the same area of the capital region and headed out. The first location was an oldish one family home from a popular area of the city. For some reason the owners allow it to sit abandoned.Continue reading “A Grand Day Out Part I”
