       Abandoned buildings in Rokytnice nad Jizerou, CZ. The smaller building is a movie theater, the larger I think was a factory. Just a shame to see this urban decay, simply not enough locals or tourists to create a business with these awesome buildings.

       @AbandonedAmerica It's definitely beautiful, just absolutely nothing they can do with it I'm afraid. This village is already over-saturated with gentrified apartments, so even converting it to apartments I don't think would be an option. Makes me wonder if it's just better to tear it down and have more nature there, than leave it in perpetual limbo and additional expense to the city government to maintain. It's right by a creek at least, could be a nice park.

       @thomas_klopf sounds like a dilemma. I do believe ruins have their own inherent worth and thus merit being allowed to exist as they are, but I seem to be in the minority with that opinion. Once you tear it down you don't have the option to change your mind in ten years when an ideal purpose arises. Not with all buildings, of course, but significant ones like this deserve it iIMO

       @AbandonedAmerica agreed on that, tough to say.. half the commercial buildings in this town are empty, very bad times.
