  • Transformer Gauge

    The guts of the transformer were missing, probably stolen by copper thieves.

  • Entrance

Benson Mines is a long-abandoned iron mine near Watertown, NY. The mine was shut down in 1978 and the buildings and have been completely abandoned ever since. Abandoned man-made structures are my favorite to take pictures of, so I couldn't resist exploring!
