The New World Mall was once a 12-story shopping center aimed at the affluent when constructed in the early 1980's. However, after years of decline, closure, shady dealings and a hasty and hazardous partial-demolition it is now open to the elements, with the Bangkok skyline and temple spires protruding over the escalator.
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.
