Having walked past these buildings countless times thinking that I should take a photo just in case they are demolished, I finally turned up just as the first steps in that process were being taken. Some of the metal windows had been removed. There are some nice little Art Deco-ish details on these otherwise modest industrial buildings. However, having lain empty for at least 3-4 years, the site is being cleared for a mixed residential-commercial development, and soon these buildings will be history.
