woah man, thanks a lot

[rushawn wuan]

fuck those links are the shit. im going to try and get something planned out. too bad its rainy season.

[Mellow]

yeah here are some more links on urban exploration
theres alot to know about asbestos and other bad chemicals that can be floating around in abandoned buildings
and a rainy season could be a good thing with helping ground alot of possibly hazardous airborne particles
going exploring when its damp can be one of the safest times to explore
finding a quality mask can be helpful too
some links
http://www.infiltration.org/

http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/abandoned/
alot of gems there ^

[rushawn wuan]

i think my city is different though as things are being torn down sometimes literally over night for new buildings, and i think vacant space is a very prized thing around here, so not a lot of stuff is just left out to take up space

surprised they never tore down this building
here is an abandon building in detroit
it is called the packard plant.
place is huge as you can see how big 500yds (in the corner)
is and comparing it to the building it is about
10 football fields long/1,000 yards
and probaly 2 and a half football fields wide.

FUCK ME DEAD
THAT PLACE IS MASIVE !!!!
any flix from the inside?

[BELTOLEUM]

sorry but i have never been in there.
i want to go into it soon but never had
a chance or a ride there.
there are some pics in my cities thread
but they are from awhile back and i don't
feel like searching for them.
I know that part of the top floor in one
section of the building completely caved
in and see a pic of it but i will try to find
some.

packard as in the car? if so, that'd be dank as fuck to explore an abondoned car factory

[BELTOLEUM]

yea that is the packard plant where the packard car was made.
if i am right it ain't much to explore lotta graff but from the pics
it looks like everything was stripped out of there like the
machines and shit.

[oh_snap]

ohhhhhhhhhh, weak sauce.
and as for how everyone finds these places. i've always just fallen upon, or heard from a friend of a friend of a friend, etc.
i went to an abandoned hotel outside of orlando a couple months ago and explored. it was really wierd, because some of the rooms still had phonebooks and stuff in it. almost all still had beds that we're made up, and it looked to have been abandoned for 5+ years.
if i go back anytime soon, i'll remember to bring my digi.

[BELTOLEUM]

went into this one with a few friends a few days ago.
don't got any pics cause it was to cold to take pics of the
inside.

Did you have to ditch security, or are there any there?

CAROLINA CIRCLE MALL

















heres the skate part, used to be pristine was eventually busted up with a jackhammer and a couple months ago the whole place was leveled.

Reminds me of that level in Tony Hawk I.

The Urban Exploration Resource link is awesome, tons of great info, seems like they are pretty down on writters however...

[CurtisWarren]

Those last flicks are amazing. Would love to paint in a place like that.
