Do you ever wonder what is behind the boarded up windows of the old factories and warehouses in St. Louis? Well, one local photographer has captured these images of one long forgotten factory near the hill and now we have the photos to share. Left to decay, this warehouse is now a dangerous compound that is better seen in photos than experienced in real life.
- The old Alfapet warehouse in St. Louis has been left behind and without new owners vandals and graffiti artists have made themselves at home.

- Most of the windows have been busted out allowing weather and critters to have access to the building.

- The warehouse now stands empty and although nothing particularly bad happened here there is an air of eerie discomfort.

- With the only light coming in from broken windows and all the elements seeping in it’s hard to remember that you’re not in a post-apocalyptic world.

- Although interesting, it is illegal to trespass in the abandoned buildings of St. Louis so enjoy these pictures and keep yourself out of trouble!
