taken close to the freeway. It was rather illegal because I was on private property, and so close to the freeway. But i liked it.

I love old abandoned places like this. The toning, the comp with the mountains in the BG sort of repeating the rooflines work for this subject, giving it a look of a place photographed long ago.
looks nice, did you resize the photo before you edited? if so try doing your editing before resizing, editing a bigger image will give you cleaner results
Sharpening overdone. The sepia color doesn't seem to add anything to this. I think the contrast of a bright blue sky would have offset the dilapidated buildings better.
