Busier...my first though was ground cover. I'm all jazzed on the Silflor weeds and grass tufts and I can see a patch of weeds & wildflowers (scraggly, of course) filling the area.
Another thought is the 'former' boiler, broken down into componants, resting outside on pallets and covered in tarps, well, partially covered in order to suggest what's under there. This tells a bit of a story and suggests the passage of time into the future - they are waiting to be picked up by a forklift and loaded on a flat for sale or scrap.
The facility looks pretty neat and tidy and I'd suspect that the super wants it that way. The little section houses out in the boonies may get away with some rusty parts in the weeds, but personally I'd keep it relatively trash-free as a contrast to those other locations where it piles up. Otherwise it gets to be overplayed and fades into the background (unless, of course, that's what you're after!)
Nice work overall!

I may not be a rivet counter, but I sure do like rivets!
