The city of Huntsville has managed to keep the grass cut around the site to reduce vermin on the nearby park. It gives the building a surreal appearance. This is around the back side away from the river. The colors were amazing.

A railroad siding lay overgrown and hidden in the forest just to the left of the image. The RR ties are leftovers from the industrial days of this site.
