Description ...

The rusty door has been open for years.  It exists in a place which is hard to describe.  A place where industry once dominated yet nature has begun to reclaim.  An massive old abandoned grain elevator on the shore of Lake Superior within the city limits of Thunder Bay.  There is a small 30-foot wide courtyard in between two concrete elevators which tower 200 feet overhead. Very little sunlight enters this opening and it is quiet but for the sound of pigeons and a distant whistle of winds up above.  Every small sound reverberates here, giving the place an otherworldly feel.  

Have a look at this other photo from the same shoot:

too late! It leads to a very dark dank stairwell which takes you underneath the elevator.. its like a maze down there where conveyor belts used to carry grain... VERY dark with low ceilings.. I almost lost my nerve haha

yes.. a very intriguing door.  But not for the faint of heart It leads to very nasty dirty dark places...
