nErD aLeRt!

Photographer Ian Ference has captured the beauty of abandoned buildings in and around New York on his blog, The Kingston Lounge. On the site Ference goes by the name Richard Nickel, Jr. -- an homage to guerrilla preservationist Richard Nickel, who documented architect Louis Sullivan's work in Chicago until he died in 1972, when he was crushed by a falling staircase at the abandoned Chicago Stock Exchange.
