I've shot at the Cotton Mill quite a bit, and I don't think that's it, similar, but not the same.

There are additional photos on the Jordan Critz site. Maybe they would provide a clue...

http://www.jordancritz.com/index.php...id=6&Itemid=16

The site also has a link to kylebarnesphotography.com, so maybe that's the studio/photographer that took the shots. There are no credits on the photos.

I've got it! Here's a shot of the same building (south wall) I took back in Jan 07.


see it full size to get the detail

Here's another from his site (shows east wall). Notice/compare the broken glass pattern in the top left of his with the top right of mine. His image is the shadow side of my image.



I am googling the location and will post it in a minute.

It was fenced off and locked up when I was there. Looks like a great location though.

That area on the google map above is pretty cool......and is dead on the weekends.
Here's some shots I took of a friend a couple of months ago - link
