Black and white photo of a woman wearing sunglasses sitting indoors at a table with a lit candle, pouring tea, while massive industrial cooling towers loom outside the window against a hazy sky.

An industrial relic resting on the sidewalk for #WeekMforMachinery. ⚙️️🧱 Walking near the University of Pennsylvania. An antique cast-iron press standing sentinel beneath a curved brick arch in the late winter sun.

A vertical street photograph from February 26, 2014, capturing an antique cast-iron industrial press standing on a concrete sidewalk outside a yellow brick building near the University of Pennsylvania. Mounted on dark wooden skids, the heavy blue-gray and rusted machine features a large spoked iron flywheel and handwheel, framed beneath a dramatic curved brick archway and closed corrugated metal door. The composition highlights the geometric curves of the wheel and the architectural arch.

Today's #Photo (taken yesterday) is of #Aberthaw Limeworks, which closed 100 years ago. At that time there would have been a port where the large pond is, now separated from Môr Hafren (Bristol Channel) by a sea wall

Looking across a still pond, bordered with feathery rushes to the ruins of grey stone square building with a red brick chimney. A deep blue sky populated with wispy white clouds is reflected in the water.

Ashton Mill in Cumberland, Rhode Island was built in 1867 as a textile mill. Decades later, its Owens-Corning plant produced beta cloth used in Apollo spacesuits. 🚀

Bhutto didn't create inequality but nationalisation broke entrepreneurship. Pakistan needed competition, not state ownership.

The Atom Smasher spent a decade rotting on its side in Forest Hills. Now it's being carefully taken apart and rebuilt at Westinghouse's nuclear headquarters — a fitting kind of homecoming. #Pittsburgh #WesternPennsylvania #IndustrialHistory #Westinghouse #ForestHills #AtomSmasher

We didn’t restore the power plant.

Restoration is for museums and guilty consciences.

We dragged the beast backward through time, kicked the dust off its bones, and told the turbines to remember what thunder felt like.
