If you get a chance to be in the fabulous city, GO! So many buildings to explore!!!! The business that ran in this building operated from 1880 until 1980. The company was best known for astronomical telescopes, turret lathes, other equipment for astronomical observatories and military instruments (rangefinders, optical gun sights, etc.).

No selfies from the top of the ladder?

I love the graffiti referring to the tree growing up on the rooftop!

loved the tree reference too, i had to take the picture because it makes me laugh every time i read it! and btw...the house from "a christmas story" is a couple of blocks away!!!

#5 is horrific. I really like 8 and 12, nice shots! I haven't been to Cleveland but maybe I'll have to check out what the city has to offer.

#5 is tagged in literally every building in Cleveland. This guy called Face does it. He's actually a rich teenager from Bay Village that ran away and lives in these places now. He's an asshole.

thanks for the info on "Face." I'm not from there, so i didn't get the connection.

Sounds like 99% of the taggers here in Detroit.

So, vokapolis, any info on the other taggers? There's some really beautiful work in the building. I was surprised. The only other building i had seen such beautiful work was at the prison farm in GA (I posted pixs here a while back).

If you ever see one that says G$M, that's a guy I used to know named Greg. He's pretty cool, but I haven't seen him in a couple years.

If you see one that says Ginger Bitch, that's actually my little brother. I'm trying to get him to stop tagging, but he really doesn't understand the point of Urban Exploring.

Well, i like the pretty colors and art work of the big tags. Some awesome stuff in there.

More than a few blocks away FYI. It's actually on the west side of town, this place is on the east side. I explored it in 2012, would love to do a group explore when I'm in town early July. https://www.flickr...72157630878968358/

Better hurry, that place is being renovated. There are a ton of other places around here, though.

I'm from Cleveland. lets go explore. that face dudes tags were cool till I realized he just does the same thing over and over again. i have no artistic ability and I'm pretty sure I could do something cool if I did it over and over.

Since there are so many people on here from Cleveland, I was actually thinking that we could organize an event that takes place in July. Would you guys be interested in that? If so, I can make a thread about it in a little bit.
