Fascinating stuff, I wonder how that all ended up there? It's such an unusual location for such a big collection of fairly modern giant light industrial buildings, especially ones that are cheek by jowl with residential streets.
It will be interesting to see how that area evolves given the circumstances that you mentioned.
