Industrial structures rehab, silos...

Gotan

Hi,

I am looking for projects that rehabilited some industrial structure to new usages...preferably grain silos...

Like Ricardo Boffill did with his ''Fabrica''...an old cement factory turned architecture studio...

any clues?

Grain Silos. . .here you go:
crown plaza - akron ohio
now the crown plaza, but formerly a quaker oats factory. Not sure if you're only looking for grain silos (or why), but there are also some pretty amazing projects done in/with former missile silos (below ground).

not exactly grain silos, but the gasometers in vienna are interesting industrial rehabs.
