Farrel Foundry RIP

The historic Farrel Foundry, built in 1890 and the largest facility of its kind in New England, was demolished Friday. The first picture below was taken June 17, 2011 on my first visit there when the Foundry was filled with used industrial electronics from dismantled factories. The building had been recently sold, and the prior owner was beginning to empty it. 

 The second photo was taken Sunday, Mar. 5, 2023 after crews had demolished the building. The second photo was taken from a position well to the right of the first photo but looking the same way. The large girder in both photos is the same member.
