Hey everyone, this is my first post documenting a minor exploration, i'll start out by saying that if you live in the DFW area, you know where this place is, and probably know what it used to be, so i'll keep it vague to preserve the location and to avoid violating rules.

I pass by this place all the time and noticed that the property owners keep a pretty hands off approach to maintenance and security ( there is some cameras ), but they have done a pretty solid job sealing up the place ( welded every door and put it semi-permanent gates in front of the main entrances) but i'd thought i'd give it a quick walk-around just to document it. Despite every entrance being sealed, I was able to get a quick peek inside through a loading bay that was covered by a gate, even though i couldn't get into the building.

So as you can see, they've been pretty thorough, and the interior of the building isn't all that interesting, aside from maybe a few cool photo opportunities. If you happen to be in the area i'd say its worth checking out just for the sheer size of the building, its kind of incredible. Also just a side note, there are multiple cameras on the front of the building facing a vast and very empty parking lot, I was unable to determine if these cameras were functioning, but they looked to be pretty new. There is also one or two cameras on the back of the building, but they have an odd sightline and you'd probably be out of sight if you stayed close to the building.
Thanks for reading!
