New Photos Show the Condition inside Albany's Central Warehouse

Thick concrete pillars, empty elevator shafts and plenty of graffiti

Although ready to meet the wrecking ball at some point, the Central Warehouse still lurks in the Albany skyline. Built in 1927, the concrete behemoth was once a cold storage facility for food products. It's believed operations shut down in the early 1990s. After it closed the building underwent numerous ownership changes, each with the hopes of rehabilitating the mammoth structure. It never happened and the building has been crumbling for decades. 

In spite of the decay, the core of the warehouse has held up quite well against the elements. Concrete pillars, six feet in diameter keep the building's interior relatively stable. 

No demolition date has been finalized.
