Some of the industrial buildings are still in use. But most of the steel mills are abandoned. After years of sitting inert and falling apart, many of the buildings were demolished around 2008. The demolition work halted, however, leaving a field of scattered debris, semi-broken foundations, and a vast half-demolished mill building.
