![]() Sweet Toof WarehouseI had been looking for this spot and I had a hunch of where it might be. I saw on Instagram and Flickr a bunch of pillars covered in vertical Sweet Toof pieces. The place was 8 stories, but the … Continue reading ![]() MorgueOkay, really it was a full hospital, but the morgue room was a first for my Urban Ex adventures – as I’ve covered hospitals before. Still no ghost though. Interestingly, I did find a a graffiti piece from a Bay … Continue reading ![]() Mental Power PlantFrom the same Asylum I’ve been covering recently, this was the power plant – and by far the most awesome building. Lots of nice industrial architecture, machinery, catwalks, and etc. [Note pictures coming soon, when I recover my Flickr] ![]() Ghost HouseWhen heading to this location, we bumped into a mother-daughter ghost hunting team. Apparently they had seen this location on a haunting tv documentary, and they retold the story of the ghost that was supposedly here. We didn’t find any … Continue reading ![]() Roofless BuildingFor a lack of a better name, I called this location “Roofless Building” as that was it’s most defining characteristic. Not too much to see here, other than beautiful decay. [Note pictures coming soon, when I recover my Flickr] ![]() In Patient HousesThe NY area certainly has a lot of abandoned mental wards. This is yet another, tens of miles away from the last I covered. These houses in particular were living quarters for some patients. We entered the building shown in … Continue reading ![]() Fort by the WaterThis old fort, now turned to a park, was a subway and a bus trip away, over an hour IIRC. But it was a nice to get out on a beautiful day. Besides the stone fort area, there were several officer – style … Continue reading ![]() DISTORT WarehouseI peeped this building when trawling Google maps for NYC graffiti yards. It had the tell-tale signs of an abandonment from the graffiti visible in Satellite view. I eventually made my way out there a few weeks ago whilst graff hunting, … Continue reading ![]() NY Farmers ColonyThe New York Farmers Colony has an interesting, sordid history. It began as a poor house, before social security systems were in place. People unable to care for themselves were sent there to do farm labor. The produce of the farm … Continue reading ![]() Graffiti CanyonAfter exploring under the freeway, I decided to check out a building that had some graffiti on it. It lead me to a path that went off into the woods. Eventually it turned into a tunnel which lead to a … Continue reading ![]() Power PlantMy last post was a power plant and I’m pretty sure this place is too, though I couldn’t find any history on it. This was a really cool, completely unplanned and unexpected explore. Last week I met someone named Bobby Hicks … Continue reading ![]() Gates of HellMy 101st Urban Ex post.. w00t! Time flies, I wonder what lies in my next hundred spots? 😀 This abandoned Power Plant was nick named the Gates of Hell by explorers before me. I don’t know why, it seemed lovely … Continue reading ![]() The QuadThe days after a major NYC snow storm I found myself once again Urban Exploring a giant sprawling complex of abandoned buildings. This time, I went to the sub-section called “The Quad.” The area has 4 pairs of large wings, … Continue reading ![]() Steam Tunnels and Roof TopsSometimes when you’ve done something for awhile, you start to think you’ve seen everything. I’ve been exploring abandoned things and drain tunnels for a few years now. But nothing could have prepared me for my most recent adventure: a giant … Continue reading ![]() Psychiatric CenterThe other day I went out with another awesome explorer I met online. We drove an hour away from the city to this magical land of abandoned buildings. This sprawling complex was huge and full of old medical / psychiatric buildings. We … Continue reading ![]() Grain Silo TerminalEarly on in my adventures I did some silos back in the Bay Area. When I moved to NYC I quickly learned of silos over on the east coast that were similar in age and style to the Bay Area’s … Continue reading ![]() Screaming CageThis was a gigantic warehouse – basically two in one. In was comprised of two separate buildings, joined with a large gate connecting them. In the middle was a creepy cage – see the thumbnail and pics below. While exploring … Continue reading ![]() Brooklyn WarehouseNot to far away from Smells house, I was able to find this mostly empty warehouse, but it was coated with wall to wall graffiti. ![]() Smells House, 1886This warehouse was built in 1886 – that’s, like, 100 years before I was born. Interestingly, the construction was made primarily out of wood. In place of steel i-beams there were wooden support beams. It’s pretty creepy to think that this … Continue reading ![]() Bus LotWhile heading to another urban ex spot, I noticed this bus lot on the way. The walls seemed like legal walls, and the gate was wide open and inviting, so I spent a few moments flicking and grabbing panos of … Continue reading ![]() Subway StationLast weekend I finally got into my first ‘real’ spot in NYC: an Abandoned subway station! It felt good to finally do some real exploring. The spot was tricky to get to – I had to climb a fence, and … Continue reading |
