Gritty and Grimy on the Gowanus - A Red Hook Impression

They seem kindred spirits...

At the mouth of the Gowanus Canal, in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn, sits a derelict, disused grain elevator, its 12 stories tall, 70 feet wide, and 429 feet long structure containing fifty-four 120-foot-tall cement silos, long abandoned.

Somehow, the grimy cargo ship tied up next to the Red Hook Grain Terminal seemed..right at home.
