Spring break. For the first time in nine years, I am taking a class at an actual school (just the one, and it's a night class, but still), and so for the first time in nine years, I have some extra time on my hands due to it being spring break. Just a couple of hours in the evening. What to do with this unexpected temporal boon? Put on my tasking boots and go out and pop my Chrononautic Exxon cherry, of course. I've had just the task in mind for a while now.

There's this massive derelict industrial property right across the street from my office. For a long time it sat empty, and then one of the warehouses on it halfway burned down and the whole area was condemned, and now it's slated to be turned into some fancy apartments once the owner and the city finish wrangling over the zoning issues. For more than a decade I walked and drove past this thing almost every day without ever once venturing to the other side of the fence, and it might not be that much longer before I no longer have the chance.

The warehouses have just been demolished. Here's what it looks like now:
