It must be saddening to see a town go from something so busy to something that desolate, I like the forgotten feel to this shot, and can't help wondering if there is really any ghosts?

If we didn't have stupid people who would we laugh at?

Perhaps the muted colors of this help to promote that desolate feeling. I was going to suggest a bit more contrast, but I think I'm reconsidering!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

I like the Ghost Towns of long ago, and good photos of them to remind us how fortunate lots of us are today. Nice shot.

Nicely composed. I think if you increase the contrast and colour slightly you will have an excellent image! well done!
