crown farm's last stand

Behind my office, sits what is left of Crown Farm, one of the few remaining farm lands in Gaithersburg, Maryland, It is slated for development, the land is being cleared and the 100 year old Crown-Heeter farm house has been razed. Seemed worthy of documenting in photos, before it morphs into a mass of housing and retail establishments. I'm not particularly sentimental, and I'm a fan of progress, but I sort of like the land this way.
