Abandoned Marsh: Indianapolis Road in Greencastle

Read time: < 1 min.

The Marsh Supermarket in Greencastle, Indiana opened in 1986 to replace a smaller structure next door. It closed under Marsh’s discount banner, LoBill Foods, in 2006 shortly after Sun Capital Partners purchased the company.

Abandoned Marsh #18. My own work.

“Abandoned Marsh” was my project to stylistically document the Marsh supermarkets closed by Sun Capital Partners, an investment firm that owned the home-grown company for the final decade of its eighty-six year history. The last Marsh supermarket closed in 2017.

Instead of taking pictures of the buildings, I decided to create 18×24 vector files in Adobe Illustrator, focusing on the complexity of their angles and how shadows and highlights interacted with them.
