Here's the rest of the room. There are about 40 of these in a row. All 50 footers.

...They don't make them like that anymore ... Wonder when those trusses were set.

The building is on the registry of historic places. It used to be the Bigelow Carpet mill back in the 1830s. They made the carpets that were in the Titanic...
My company took over the building in the late 1960s after it sat unused for 50 yrs.

I'll never understand how spaces/buildings can be wasted like that.
