I really like photo essays like that, and that one is fantastic.

Glad you liked it. Even abandoned, those buildings are spectacular.

The ballroom is beautiful.

Its not the same but a year or so ago I saw a story on abandoned Catskill's hotels that was really cool. Some it looked like they closed on a whim never to return. Here is one of them, I couldn't find the larger article I read before.

I have a weird thing for abandoned buildings/towns etc. I've mentioned it before but I can't recommend the book Hidden Cities by Moses Gates enough. All about urban exploration, subway lines that are no longer in use, observation decks that have been closed for years, climbing bridges etc. Love that stuff.

I listened to your recommendation and read that enjoying it very much. I like when they were in some drainage tunnels (in Russia?) and it started raining and his guide told him they needed to get out of there really quickly.

Not that I wanted to anyway but that whole chapter made me decide I will never be visiting Russia in my life. I'd somehow wind up in prison with no documentation.

Interesting shots. The graffiti adds an extra element of interest to all the natural decay.

I don't remember details, but someone a while back took photos in an abandoned state hospital. That was interesting but a bit creepy.
