Wow.

It's obvious to see you put lot of care into your work.

I'm still trying to figure out where this is... Is it the area behind the Pepsi factory near Battersea?

I live 5 minutes away, but I haven't been there in forever.

You're doing an awesome job of painting the area. You should contact the P-I and see if they'll do a feature on it.

Some of it is the area behind the pepsi factory, specifically, the first part of the frst drawing, showing the bridge, abandoned car in the weeds, and curving soot and dirt path where railroad tracks used to be. Otherwise it is hard to tell where stuff might be, becuase I've combined 40 or 50 images so far.
