751D • PARK

751D • PARK, built in 1954 and interwoven with massive pieces of equipment, is now an industrial relic with a rich patina that has come with the passage of time. Gas tanks, desulfurization towers, Locomotive Plaza, a bridge, and a skywalk are the protagonists among the many spaces. The sedate, deep rusty red of the towers takes the place of long-faded paint, changing in the sun. The interplay of light and shadow highlights how the once heavily used equipment now sits tranquilly. The warm lighting gives expression to the structures and recalls memories of the plant bustling with productivity.
