Drafter’s Tunnel

Partier graffiti dates to when the caves were last open to the public; probably in the 1990s. This tunnel used to horseshoe between the brewery’s ice chute (left) and basement door (right, backfilled). Note the utility tunnel in the upper-right corner as well as the lighting brackets on the ceiling.

When the building switched souls from booze to bread, these contraptions were mounted across the brewhouse floors… they’re not for hops, either.

Goop and slop slip to drop in the shame drain.

A heavy cloth separates the sanding station from other areas. This particular section seemed to specialize with chair seats, judging by the many unsanded blanks there.

An antique clothes dryer and sample inline 4 engine, the latter used as a training piece after WWII to retrain veterans.

A green chair in a green room.

The Engine House’s boiler, which would have been fired all day all day, virtually from the day the shop opened until the day it closed.

This picture is lit by a direct lightning strike of the building. It’s impossible to describe the feeling of being in this giant open building the moment it channeled an electric explosion into the earth.

Whoever did this: good job. You get it.
