Structural polymers LLC, Detroit

This, is a plain, mostly demolished foam/polymer etc. distributor. Now this building is just a small office space, part of a larger building.


This is the most newspaper I've seen in one space, definitely used by a homeless person.


Cool view of an other abandoned through the bathroom window, secured with wire.


This old wooden sign tipped me off on what the company did.

Michner Plating Co, Jackson

Image
       At 520 Mechanic St. is a building that is over 100 years old, the structure was constructed for a company called SM Isbell Seed. Isbell's Seeds was a grain/seed/bean refining business that was located in that city.  This building is very noticeable due to its odd-shaped roofs and fiberglass windows, and recently it's weight in graffiti, but this post is not about that structure. It is about Michner Plating, the ones who expanded the site. There are 2 sections, both owned by the city, a different, three-story building was the former Isbell Seed complex, but I recently found ways in and will probably go there sometime... Part 1 (Free entry) This was the first time I got in, through a door somebody had knocked in back in 2018. There was barely any graffiti inside due to how shut-up it was. I went through a (now blocked) hole in a fence by the railroad. On the right is a loading bay door, letting in light. Notice the windows? The complex was expanded multiple...

Michner Plating Metal Treat Division, Jackson

      In the far south part of Jackson was the last retreat for Michner Plating Co. Where a bunch of other industrial companies had moved as well. This is the lesser known Michner Plating building. Unlike the other building on Mechanic St., this complex still has the sign attached to the facade. Another quirk are the odd sheds on the roof. These are most likely for the machines in the building. This is the main office, and the old surrounding overhanging looks like it has been removed. Remains of the plating plant's machines which were subject to foreclosure. These might be the zinc & nickel machines, though I am no plating expert. A weird find was this old fashioned retro break area, which might've been popular at time of construction. The company president's office, trashed. This is a lot to take in all at once. Makes you wonder who came here to do this. That's a very big hive, luckily nobody lives in it. Here is a different building in the complex, It used to hav...

Michigan Pressed Brick, Detroit

Image
      Michigan Pressed Brick is usually neglected as an urbex spot, but when it comes to graffiti, the building is just walls. This building used to have a roof, until it burnt down sometime in the 2000s. Now the floor is covered in old tech. Here is a basin to wash your hands. It was bathroom detached from the main structure. There is no more second floor now. If you're brave you can climb the rotting wooden stairs. This is the main room where the old warehouse used to be. You can still lease the property today. The adjacent room was full of old tech bits like keyboards and memory chips, and what was a car. This is barely even a room any more. More like a jungle, the overgrowth was growing over everything. This space has always been empty. I wonder how long it's been since someone climbed these stairs... Makes you wonder how the hell the second floor got warped into this shape. The original lights are still hanging from the old wires. That's pretty cool. This single stor...
