Looks like a nice place to go for a walk.
I can almost smell the fresh air.

It can get rough in storms and all those areas get flooded.  It's not directly on the ocean but on Long Island Sound

In the winter it usually is in the summer sometimes though :eh:

Same here, but I have been there a few times.   Hartford isn't that bad or anything but it is still in the BOWASH megalopolis.

The Northeast US is the rust belt.   That is more due to the old relic factories of the industrial revolution combined with the population moving elsewhere.   My uncle just retired and he spends way more time at his condo in Boca Raton, Florida now than he does in Mass even though his kids still live up there (they are all married and everything).   He says the only time of year to live in Boston is the summer lol.

If it is something like the Pantheon or Colleseum, then yes decay is beautiful.   Factories are not architectual works of art in any sense.   They are ugly as hell.    Most American architecture looks like crap to me.   Especially the industrial and commercial stuff.   There are some interesting churches, houses and art galleries here though.

For some reason industrial areas always appealed to me.  Around here most of the old factories are brick and very interesting especially when you consider most were made before heavy machinery was in extensive use

Same. We had a lovely one near middletown that
I always wanted to play in. They finally tore it down.
Mid 19th century place.

Buffalo has some large swaths of rust belt remnants
that I really used to enjoy.

Hulks of old ships are nice too.

It all evokes these feelings of wonderful melancholy.
The futility of man.
