Letchworth Village

Hello all, I'm new here and I have just went on my first urban exploration experience. I have gone to a little village near my house and taken pictures of the outside of the houses but never to an institution and never inside until now. I plan on going back here in the future because I only saw about a third of the buildings, maybe less.
This place closed it's doors in 1996. There has been a lot of damage done and at least one fire that destroyed one of the main buildings.

That was a cool place to visit. A lot of folks put it down because everything is supposed to look like Hudson but I enjoyed my time there.
Bird, I can't wait to see what you have in store for us when you stop using the forum's photo linking crap and ease up a little on the fish-eye abuse. Your first photo blows my fuckin' mind!

By photo linking crap, you mean how it shows small pics and then blows them up when you hover over them? I saw that and didn't like how that works. I didn't know before.. As for the fisheye, I kinda like it and it's the only wide lens I have. I do plan on getting a wide angle lens without the distortion, hopefully soon because I don't want to over do the fisheye. There were only 3 pictures I uploaded that were with the fisheye lens anyway. To each there own..

It's a great back-up when New York's OMH throws you out of Rockland.

This place is fun, I need to go back. I picked the day it was in single digits with a crazy windchill to go. And as such my interiors stank it up. Although the snow provided for some lovely exteriors.

Welcome and awesome photos. I look forward to more!

I've been to Letchworth before. Very nice, quiet area where you aren't really bothered. I didn't go into any structures when I was there, but it didn't look too hard, either

this place looks AWESOME! Is it in NY?

I need a new spot to check out personally...

nice shots too! The HDR stuff is trendy and I do like some of it, I am also a fan of the wide angle too, but less so of the HDR. Like you said though, to each their own!
