Signs of Forgotten America

Capturing Americana through forgotten towns.

I want to travel the United States and document all of the forgotten towns that used to thrive before urban expansion.
My dream assignment is to road trip all 48 continental states and try to capture the ghost towns that many of us remember but few of us ever see anymore.
My goal is to only travel the old original highways, and once important thoroughfares to reach my destinations.
