Doshen gives readers a glimpse inside these and other decaying, haunting places and makes us question why some were so quickly left behind. Many will sit for sale in hopes of being used again or hopefully renovated into something different. Brief text accompanies the photographs of sketchy floors, dark hallways, and flooded basements that Doshen shares. 650 0 Abandoned buildings|zIllinois|zChicago|vPictorial works. 650 0 Lost architecture|zIllinois|zChicago|vPictorial works. 651 0 Chicago (Ill.)|vPictorial works.
