Anybody ever stumbled across something like this? The whole floor was covered in charcoal. Fortunately the guy lit his pile of wood in a room that is pretty much 100% cement.
It was an eventful trip, as I ran into a total of 3 people on the property over the course of an hour. Maybe it's not that surprising, as you can just waltz right in to this place at three different entry points. One pretty obvious squatter camp that I just avoided (they had it quarantined off with some pallets, which I thought was a nice "keep the fuck out" signal), a scrapper loading a big piece of equipment in his truck (all the easy stuff was gutted long ago), and a kind of funny druggie guy who scared the shit out of me walking around smashing fluorescent tubes in this big open area. Later I walked in on him getting ready to shoot up in one of the bathrooms. He didn't seem worried about anything, and just immediately started talking to me about how cool it would be to have a party in the building while he continued to prep. He saw the burned room too, but seemed to think it was a really badass idea to burn the place down.
The place manufactured baby stuff until a few years ago. I was hoping to find some creepy remnants of that, but all I got was a busted up crib in the basement.
Pardon the shitty photos. For one, I suck at photography, but to make things worse my camera is also a complete POS. It started giving me some error before I could get any shots of the downstairs, which has some dangerous and leaky-looking chemical barrels and some big machinery, some giant boob porno magazines, and that crib. Card reformatted and now it works again. Bastard camera.

Interesting.
I remember seeing photos from an exploration in an old school in Philly. About a year or so later, someone lit it up.

Imagine a scrapper accidentally lighting a school on fire in a North Philly ghetto while he was burning plastic from copper wires to cash in on some fresh ready-rock?
It had nothing to do with this forum and everything to do with inner city poverty, economic depression, drug addiction and the huge, entire-city-block occupying, gutted public high school with the missing windows and shattered doors surrounded by a couple of million citizens of various hereditary stock and countries of origin.
Don't be an elitist crab-ass drama queen. I'll wipe a booger on your forehead.

When I read "high traffic" I immediately thought of a flock of stoners cruising around in their "I'm gonna fix it up, man" 70s sports cars on the backroads outside of my hometown - pretty much how it always was on weekend nights in the 80s here. lol
