Abandoned Paint Shop NYC

Abandoned+Paint+Shop+NYC

These images depict an old paint shop used to fix up or buy cars to sell. Now these old cars just sit in the lot and wait forever to be sold while the building becomes filled with asbestos and trash along the ground. This place is somewhat of a goldmine to scrappers with cars filled with copper and the engine and everything still intact. According to LtvSquad, the building was built in 1931. In other parts of the building they had a place to develop paint. They had hired up to 50 factory workers working there everyday until 2004 when the owner died causing everyone to lose their jobs and the factory to go up for sale. Since then the factory has just sat abandoned in Queens slowly rotting away.
