Constructed over many years from 1967 to 1975, this Hoffmann brick kiln had a chimney more than 50 meters tall. It operated until 1992, after which more modern brick-making factories priced it out of the market, and it was left to the elements. In the early 2010s there was briefly some effort to designate the old kiln as a heritage property and revitalize the area, but around 2013 the entire site was levelled and eventually turned into residential units.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
