It's very likely that Al Capone, Bugsy Siegel and Bugs Moran once used these stairs at The Savoy Hotel in Hot Springs, Arkansas, US. The Savoy is over 100 years old and once hosted a number of notable and notorious figures in its early 20th century history as a flourishing focal point in a city of gambling and vice. The Savoy is said to be haunted with the spirits of some of its former guests.
These curated images were selected from my portfolio which documents over 80 abandoned sites around the world.
Any derelict building comes with it’s own colourful history, unique architecture, and reasons for being abandoned. Each site has it’s own character, a sort of structural personality, which makes it truly distinctive from other empty buildings. However, there is often a singular element that links these decaying dwellings, a feature that is also as distinctive in character as the building itself, which are the steps. These wooden, concrete, and metal steps of abandonia were once the most utilised component of the premises and now, though the buildings are no longer in use, they remain as the only functional facet of these once-bustling venues. Most doors, windows, and even roofs of these dwellings have disappeared, but the steps always remain, and the sight of them can be a striking reminder of the past.
