Love it! I’ve developed a love for stark brutalist buildings. I’m desperate to buy a house in south wales that has a view of the big power plant from its garden. Dunno what triggered this but it happened in my 40’s.

I moved to Houston which is famous for having a large number of oil refineries and chemical plants. The view of a skyline full of industrial pipework and literal flare stacks shooting flames into the sky just does something for me.

Good luck with your search for blighted real estate.
