Interesting. New England has a lot of old mill buildings, many of which are vacant and going to seed. But many have been renovated and put to use.
Yes, true - and with some very creative uses.

A few from the Med
You missed your chance - should have printed one of your images and hung it in those frame like sculptures - 'course, may have meant time in the police station but you could have had a few minutes of framed fame. :)

Still more...That last ship is a museum, interesting to tour.
Until now have never ever seen a bridge turned into an office building. I'd like to work there.

One more downtown Detroit.
Let's not give up on Detroit quite yet! Three years ago my wife and I were on the Ambassador Bridge waiting to re-enter the U.S. when I noticed this building I'd never noticed before {see #1}. After we got through immigration/customs we went looking and found #2 facing an attractive park. I turns out that this is "Michigan Central" railroad station. According to the Internet, the upper stories of this building never were finished; now the same company that owns the bridge {I never thought of international bridges as being something that someone owns} also owns the building.
