First, yay! How big was that bolt? It looks huge but is hard to tell.

What is that yellow piece of plastic in the bottom left? Is it a piece of "CAUTION" tape? Or is it a police line?

I wondered that too, Dylan. It does look like a "Caution" tape... or police tape, they're quite alike. It looks really out of place in this gray, dusty atmosphere.

Actually... now that I turn my head around... it looks like a yellow tag affixed to a spigot that may have, at one time, said "Water." What do you think?

That very well could BE a cat sized bolt, Rekrats! How odd, that yellow tape looks so new compared to the rest of the place. It could possibly say water.

looks like there was a piece of caution tape on one of the pieces. I dont thing they had that in the 60s when the placed closed. If they did it would be blackened with age

It's not a bolt, it's probably a heat exchanger or something similar. It's connected by two flanges, and the mechanisms in front are valves. Steamfitter work. As for the caution tape, it might be newer. Maybe someone was doing demo, trying to scrap the metal when steel prices were really high last year.... Or it could say water, steam coils would be heating a water line in a heat exchanger, but the tape looks newer.....

I don't think it is a bolt,I think it is hollow,or a tube with threads on the out side. If you look at the other end of the pipe there seems to another one just like it, but with something screwed on the end.. Perhaps a saftey valve of some kind?
