Abandoned Places

Elko Tract

Richmond, VA

The Elko Tract east of Richmond, Virginia, is the city's 'lost city': a WWII decoy airfield turned half-built 1950s development whose empty streets, kerbs and fire hydrants ran through forest for decades — a grid without houses that bred a generation of legends.
