Greetings, Fellow Urban Crawlers!
Coming in with a few photographs of a town that has been losing population to urbanization and globalization for about half a generation.
It's just isolation from what many young people seek combined with a general demographics decline.
While buildings and plots are being left behind and go into oblivion, though, there are still those investors who buy some of the plots, build quick condos and try to sell apartments at costs as if they were in the capital city or on the sea coast.
So a ghost town either way?
Well, there's always someone on board but not many.
Anyway, I shall be concentrating on the visual details. Part I and its possible additions shall be on the old and crumbling, while other parts shall be on the new ideas for new home visions.
Locked. Hard Locked. The barriers in our minds and on our door handles. Metal wires to ward against any kind of intrusions.
Except for mosquitoes, birds, flies, thrown cats, freerunners. We have an abundance of the first four in our town and a lack of the fifth.
The chimneys look kind of new once I zoom out. This is the side facing the street, directly.
A peak around the corner and towards the hill nearby.
In the feet of which horse-drawn chariots race...
Filling holes in the walls around our castles with whatever materials and objects we have.
Banners of peace talks on barbed wire.
In short, don't forget the following...
Welcome!
And Keep Out!
Peace!
