Abandoned Route 66 New Mexico: Land of Trading Posts in Bloomington, MN

Captures the haunting remnants of abandoned Route 66 New Mexico showcasing the crumbling buildings and fading attractions.
There are ghosts on Route 66 in New Mexico. Every abandoned building is a nod to the past, an echo of the days when the Mother Road was a bustling highway filled with people heading to work or on vacation; it transported towards their dreams or away from their nightmares. In the Land of Enchantment there was every element of Route 66—the long empty road, the teeming city, the breathtaking vista, the tourist trap, the bright neon sign, the glimpse of another culture. There were trading posts and service stations which offered not only fuel and food, but perhaps the chance to see a bear, an eagle, or a pit of venomous snakes.
Today, so many of those attractions which once lined the highway are gone, and those that remain are mere shadows of their former selves, the adobe crumbling and the viga beams broken.
