Transformers 2 - Bethlehem Steel

Hey all! Hope you are doing well! I had the opportunity to night with a friend to peruse over at the bethlehem steel sight where they were filming the opening scenes of Transformers 2. The scenes are evidently to portray a city in China. They have had trains running, explosions, black hawk and apache helicopters flying around the buildings as well as Helicopters made out to look like Chinese police as well. But what amazed me the most was just the buildings all lit up. People have been saying that they can remember when they acctually looked like that when the steel was up and running. It shut down in the early 80's. But I think it is amazing the history that people are now trying to preserve or create with the space now. This is near to where the Sands Corporation is building their new casino in Bethlehem as well...Tonight was the last night of shooting supposedly for Bethlehem. tomorrow they are on their way to Philly and DC. Cant wait to see the movie!

Enjoy the Pictures!

Blessings,
Kate
