A long day of driving and taking pictures- Phoenix

[loftlovr]

This is a documentation of my day yesterday...
I may need to borrow some money from someone for another tank of gas.

Had a million errands to run all in different parts of the City so I decided to make the best of it and get some project updates.... Kinda hard driving and taking pics and also my spy cam is a bit busted right now, so excuse the image quality!

I started out looking for a salvage yard on 30th and Washington and mistakenly, I thought 30th Avenue....
So, I couldn't help but to get some pics of some of the more blighted, forgotten areas of Phoenix which is the 30th Ave and Jefferson-Washington-Lincoln area of Phoenix:

Hayden Ferry style Silo around 30th Ave and Licoln- too bad it ain't Downtown!






Old Warehouse in the same area:



A good old fashion "swim" near 25th Ave and Jefferson



A great Modern home in the same area, probably could nab this sucka for $70,000. Location location location:
