Sir Alexander Fleming, l'uomo che ha salvato milioni di vite umane grazie all'invenzione della penicillina, nei primi anni 50 venne a visitare questo complesso industriale e restò senza parole. “E' la fabbrica per la produzione della penicillina più moderna e all'avanguardia che abbia mai visto”, esclamò. Era maestosa e incuteva timore. Ettari di terreni ed edifici immensi dove lavoravano migliaia di operai che si erano insediati poco lontano, a San Basilio, a Rebibbia, a Lunghezza. La LEO, questo il nome della fabbrica, era il centro del nuovo polo industriale del dopo guerra. Grazie a questa immensa struttura, la Tiburtina attrasse piccole aziende, indotto, cervelli, diventando uno dei simboli del boom ecomico italiano. Oggi a vederlo da fuori continua a incutere timore, ma non più per la sua mestosità. Lo scheletro con il cemento a vista, le scale fatiscenti e le recizioni provoca angoscia. È la metafora di Roma, della sua grandezza passata e del suo decadimento presente. (diarioromano.it)

Dramatic b/w tones to underline the industrial decadence, not only of the capital, but of the whole country. With the motivation of the cost we have lost all the productions of strategic sectors (chemistry, electronics, energy, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, pharmaceuticals etc ...). Now we are losing the car (with all the mechanics connected), steel and telecommunication. It seems that we care, considering it strategic (?!), only the air transport that has already cost us trillions. I see it black.
Happy party anyway

You have photos of Rome in your Gallery of such beauty that I would not want my choice to appear almost a paradox compared to what you have produced.
After seeing and then reading the caption you reported, my choice convinced me even more.
Beautiful choice of recovery and post-industrial archeology with a b/w change that emphatically the drama of its degradation and abandonment.
Good evening Angelo,
Massimo.
