Out of Service

A fire hydrant with an "Out of Service" sign affixed to it stands in front of one of the vacant buildings at Centlivre Village Apartments in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Centlivre Village was built as a luxury apartment complex about 50 years ago; but since the 1990s it has fallen into disrepair, and has been almost completely abandoned for several years. Many of the buildings have boarded-up doors and broken windows, but a few tenants still live in a couple of them.

According to an article in The News-Sentinel, Centlivre Village was bought in March, 2016 by some local developers who plan to renovate and reopen the complex. When I photographed it in June, some work had already begun.

Purchase Prints
by Christopher Crawford

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.

Credit card payment is handled through Paypal. You do not have to have a Paypal account. When you checkout, you will be taken to Paypal's site. If you have a Paypal account, sign in and approve the payment.

If you do not have a Paypal account, and do not want to sign up for one, there is a link on the Paypal page that says "Don't have a Paypal Account?" Click it to pay without signing up. It will accept your credit card like a normal credit card payment.

Prints usually ship within 7 days. This allows time for me to make your print, and if you have ordered a framed print, to frame and mat it.

Thank you for supporting my work.
