Shots from an abandoned corporate office in Ontario, Canada. This was a somewhat stressful exploration, as the location sat less than 200 feet away from the actual plant, which was still in full working order. A parking lot full of cars and a manned security booth kept the adrenaline pumping.

Our initial visit was cut short, but Freaktography returned later in the day to continue seeing what this location had to offer. His shots of a full chemical lab and safety training facilities are quite awesome, and hopefully he will include them.

Very cool shots - I really like the first and last in particular.

Great work Ground State, I was so bummed that you missed all the good stuff, but our next location that day made up for any disappointment I would imagine!

Get your ass back there!!!!!!


The photos below are from three separate visits, our initial visit was cut short due to plans we had at another location, I came back that afternoon alone to capture some more of the place and then made one more visit with no time restrictions or worry about losing sunlight.



Part 1

On first entry we started by exploring one wing of the facility - seems to have been the main offices and it really wasn't very exciting - here are those photos....

Part 2


Next, I move up and over to another wing, to find that this side has been vacant much longer than the other side as evident by the decay and mold on the walls. I was pleased to find training rooms still complete with TV's and VCR's, desks, training manuals. safety equipment, books etc. When they decided not to use this building any longer they also decided to just leave everything there, as you will see if you keep reading - it gets better

Part 3

Moving down another level, I am startled as I am greeted by someone sitting up on a filing cabinet, this temporarily scares the shit out of me until i realize who it is. I am now moving into the most interesting areas of this building, so stocked full of awesomeness and interesting things that i am completely overwhelmed and unsure of where to start. As I shoot and explore I am finding more and more interesting items - this seems to be some kind of further training department where they train for first aid, CPR and other medical types of things

Part 4


Moving along, I am absolutely shocked to come across what seems to be an entire medical department, complete with Dr's office, patient exam rooms, personnel medical files, medical books anD equipment, even a surgery room and a hazardous waste and hazardous materials storage room - full of hazardous stuff.

I move carefully in these rooms, aware of my surroundings and careful of what I touch and how I touch it.

There is so much more to see and tell from this location, it has a vast and dark basement complete with utility tunnels and storage rooms packed with old historical photos of the building and its past.

There is a large industrial room with a tool shop, lathes, presses and other machinery.

I know of a handful of others who have visited since the discovery, I'm just not sure if any of them post here anymore. I would love to see what others have found and shot here.

There will surely be more visits here by me when I'm able to capture more and to just hang out here again, there was just something about this place makes makes me want to go back


2016 is turning out to be another great year for finding unique places and this is just one more on that list


I hope you've enjoyed this one, thanks for checking it out!

Well Done !!

Stressful but man you pulled it off and have some great shots too !!

Loving the last shot haha

Holy shit! That's amazing. Great sets all around.

The combined sets are awesome. Thanks guys! Lovin the medical equipment left behind. The bottles in the cabinet are so neatly aligned...very nice find.

That is seriously cool stuff!

This is absolutely wicked.


The doll pictures frightened me, but then I'm frightened of finding dolls in any UE endeavour. Don't ask.

Not only is this a cool place, but these are some well done photos.

Nice work, guys. Definitely looks like an awesome spot.

Wow you two!
Great location and photos.

Yeah. That'd be great.

Amazing location, and beautiful pictures. That clinic room is gorgeous. All those bottles.

Thanks, everyone!
