【 ABANDONED Warner & Swasey Observatory Documentary 】

Описание: The Warner & Swasey Observatory, designed and built by internationally recognized telescope manufacturers Worcester Warner and Ambrose Swasey.

Perched on a forgotten hilltop in East Cleveland, this 127 year old observatory has now seemingly been left to the elements and vandals.

Once, a prominent research facility to unlocking the mysteries of the universe, it now sits empty and abandoned.
