Scenes of Bridgeport

On a recent trip to Bridgeport's Co-Prosperity Sphere, Chicagoist encountered the following scenes of daredevil graffiti and industrial dilapidation. We're pretty sure the silo tableau is referred to as "the Building" by local bombers, but being a height-fearing homebody artist we're not quite sure. Does anyone have any stories about this building, or know more about the tags displayed there? Let us know in the comments section.

i was over there in the spring and saw a dead dog.

also in your 4th pic, is a tribute to evol and afroe (who were killed in the spring by a drunk cop) by dtek.

I've been in that building before. My friends called it the Sky Factory. You can go all the way to the roof of the silo, but make sure you bring stuff to see with because it's dark in there.

Don't know about the tags, though. We've got some pics from up there and inside the place.

I'd recommend against going alone, though.
