Documenting local ruins is a passion for Trumbull man Donald Eng FacebookTwitterEmail 1of9 2of9 3of9 5of9 6of9 8of9 9of9 TRUMBULL — Abandoned buildings are a bit like time capsules, containing artifacts of a world that hasn’t existed in decades — and for decades, Trumbull resident Rob Dobi has been drawn to them. “There’s something about it that’s so serene,” Dobi said. “Especially when you think of places where thousands of people once worked that one day they just locked up and left.” Dobi is an urban explorer. He and others who enjoy the hobby painstakingly document modern ruins, photographing the dusty factories, offices, resorts, schools, theaters and anything else old and abandoned he can find. He has gathered hundreds of such photos on his website, newenglandruins.com.
