Looking for a Philly Location

Good evening all.

I've been back through Philly a few times, shooting some random photography, but coming up nil with some of the UE locations. So far they've been either monitored, in a super sketchy area, or just plain gone.

I thought similar of one location, an abandoned school listed on the Database. However, I keep revisiting this one, because according to posts I've found online, the school is located in North/Central Philly while the database puts it in South Philly, off Broad Street.

Anyone familiar with this location, and if it's pin is correct. Is it even still there?

Your vagueness defeats you.




"Are you happy now with all the choices you've made?" "Are there times in life when you know you should've stayed?"
"Will you compromise and then realize the price is too much to pay?" "Winners and losers... which one will you be today?"

Hah, my apologies. I guess I tried too hard to avoid naming it.

So name it, silly-buns. Anything here's already been stripped, raped and strangled by the local denizens of the ghetto.

Not everything. Most but there are a few things that haven't.

Well, given that all signs so far are pointing towards it no longer being there, I was looking for the old St. Gary's School.

It was in Germantown, and it is, indeed, gone.

Oh yeah, bro. That was the old Jewish Orphanage in Germantown. That went down in 2007, I believe. It was a burned-out fucking mess after the fire in '99 anyway.

He was among the best.
Tough loss to deal with.
I still instinctively go to send him texts ...

You could try Eastern State Penitentiary, it's not urbex per se but it's risk free and great for photography.
