Holyoke, MA is a small city of approx. 40,000 people situated in Western, MA just north of the City of Springfield. Once a thriving mill town made up of a diversified immigrant popular there now sits many abandoned buildings that once housed those companies. These photographs document a few of those businesses as seen today. These pictures were taken along the south side of the City near Canal Street.
Doing demo work on holyoke mills, some of which you have photographed. Can give you more access and updates if you would like to continue to document
Hi Mike,
Thanks for taking time to look at my photographs. As for access I don’t go inside buildings even with permission. It’s not worth the hazards not to mention asbestos thats in many of them. If you have have addresses to some buildings that I can safely photograph from the street which you think would be a good idea to document please let me know.
