Wyandotte Photographer Explores Trenton’s McLouth Steel Plant

Kelly Christopher Luttrell takes a tour of the hulk of a structure that lines West Jefferson.

Wyandotte photographer Kelly Christopher Luttrell took a closer look at the now abandoned McLouth Steel plant in Trenton.

Over the course of three days, Luttrell revealed a deep appreciation of the property.

"My thoughts after checking it out, for me at least, was amazement," he said. "From a photographer's sense, it is perfect. Many areas are literally frozen in time—desks, chairs, knickknacks and coffee mugs still where they had been left years ago. With all the added years of dust and decay, the images tell a great human narrative about change and the way the years age everything and how some things get left behind."
