First UE attempt- Abandoned School
< on 7/30/2013 7:16 PM >
Posted on Forum: UER Forum
 
I've been interested in UE for a while and decided to grab a friend and try it out.

1.

There were rumors of renovations, but the school was still pretty overgrown and relatively untouched- as far as I could tell.

2.


The school was boarded up well enough on the ground floors, which didn't do much to prevent entry, but did make the first floor fairly dark.

3.


4.

There were lots of decaying chalkboards, peeling paint, and various other surfaces that had pretty interesting textures/colors that they'd developed during the decay.

5.

The bathroom on the upper floor was very cool. There was minimal debris, and mostly peeling paint and plants that were reclaiming the area.

6.

My favorite picture of the day. A successful first attempt.

The whole set on Flickr: https://secure.fli...72157634816471731/

I'd love to connect with some people in the Atlanta area! Hopefully I'll be at a meet-up soon.

nice!

When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store.

Is this site still up ?

DammB... I thought you said workers were doing demo.

Or maybe I misunderstood.

I agree with Bishop... that was more than an attempt

Glad to see another Atlanta native slinking onto the scene. I hope your 'try out' went well enough to encourage you to keep it up. Always nice to see a fresh face

Never said they are doing demo. I said they are working real hard to keep people out which leads to a demo.
