Completed in 1935, this office building was part of Taichung Sugar Factory, which was abolished in 1990. After a long period of abandonment the office was designated a cultural heritage property and nicely restored toward the end of the 2010s.

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.
