The abandoned Stratford building in downtown Alton, Illinois.

#photography #streetphotography #streetscape #streetview #alton #illinois #stratford #streetscapephotography #abandoned

An exterior view of a five-story brick building with an ornate stone entrance from a steeply sloped sidewalk.  A vertical orange sign with white letters reading "STRATFORD" hangs off the corner of the building.  Multiple metal brackets hang off the side of the building around the roofline and were probably for some type of awning.

I found this blue chair sitting abandoned next to this building with an textured wall. Why was it there? Who was using it? I'll never know, but there must be a story behind it being there.

The entire east side of this apartment building in Alton, Illinois is covered in blocks of color and birds. Show me some large, building sized murals near you.
