Description

My father grew up around this area and would collect pigeon chicks nestled in the crevasses of the nearby water tower to sell to fanciers.  Even though they were separated by centuries, the fort resembles the Brutalist-style bunkers of the paranoid Soviet Albanian republic that were aimed at the Ionian Sea, between Italy and the Iron Curtain.  Forts aren’t just a defense against invaders, they also serve as a defense against new ideas.

    This downtown building in Nassau sat abandoned for many years before it fell apart or was partially demolished.  I was very lucky to catch this fleeting state of beauty.

  • Two abandoned structures sit in a parcel of land overgrown with weeds.
    $79.00$179.00 + VAT for Bahamian residents

    Sadly this ruin, probably dating back to the colonial era, was raised to create more parking space on Cumberland street. It was behind a large residence that may have served as a hotel, law firm or some other prominent use due to its location. In the foreground, there appears to be a well or cistern for water.

    A ruin across the street from the ocean in San Souci. In it’s day, it must have been a glorious little house.  I spent so much time coming back here at different times of day in order to get the right light, this was the only photo that made the grade.
