June 5, 2017 - Abandoned Cement Factory






On the very eastern edge of Oregon, alongside a portion of I-84 that follows the route of the Oregon Trail, sits an abandoned cement factory.  The ruins are at a spot on the map labeled 'Lime', an unincorporated spot on the map whose post office closed in 1964.  The factory was opened in 1916 by the Acme Cement Plaster Company and closed in 1980.  The concrete ruins, tagged by spray can artists, starkly stands out; an industrial ghost town in the middle of the desert.
