This place has been on my radar for several months now...but it seemed too difficult. However, on my way back home from another explore (well, a scouting mission; infiltration next weekend, I hope) I realized this location was on the way. Well...what am I gonna do? NOT attempt it?!
Upon arriving and doing what we do...I was rewarded with a pretty decent explore. Lots of stuff laying around, and while there was destruction, there was almost no graffiti!
It seems this building was built in the 20's, and while the first floor was wooden-very treacherous and collapsing in places-it appears other parts of the building were added to later. (I know enough not to trust anything even if it is concrete, but I felt marginally safer on the more modern flooring upstairs!)
Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy!

5. Even without the seating, I liked this auditorium...but didn't quite dare to go beyond the threshold.
6. Kinda funny, considering this is the entrance to the bathroom...

17. I usually don't move things, but the trees were on the floor; I decided to make this shot...don't really have a clever caption though.
18. An untouched Zenith behemoth. In my elementary school, they just wheeled in a TV cart.

21. This looked like a science/chem lab.
22. Holy crap, I found the motherload! Flush with liquid assets! This play money (along with fake coins) was scattered all over this room.

26. This...this made me laugh. At least the guy used the chalkboard...Bart Simpson would be proud.

28. Overhead projectors, I remember these! I guess nowadays they're more an obsolete relic.
29. This room was a mess; much worse than any of the other rooms. At least the wet floor held down the asbestos particles. (And I'm glad I had my mask)
