We found this in the country. Its been on sale for a while. Its pretty cool and we didn't even get that far into the second floor yet.

1.) It should probably be noted there was slippery mold everywhere in this room.

2.) The graffiti was dated 2011 so this building has stood empty a while.

3.) Our good friends bert and ernie (not pictured but the other wall is our lord and savior big bird).

4.) Most of the ceiling was exposed like this or worse which made the second floor super sketchy.

5.) I'm sure all the peeling paint was lead based lol.

6.) These were like metal beams that spanned the whole room like the building's skeleton, but most of them were broken and bent somehow.

7.) Came upon this old tractor that was pretty cool but I think something lived under it.

Interesting place. Lots of disturbed asbestos floor tiles, and it doesn't look too ventilated. That tractor was a cool find.

It was actually pretty open in some parts to the middle and back, but I totally ate it on those slippery ass tiles and now I'm slightly concerned lol.

The loose tiles in photos 1 and 2 look too big and too intact to me to be asbestos tiles. Asbestos tiles crack or shatter when stressed, so if you walked/fell on those warped tiles and they just bent or deformed instead of snapping or shattering then I doubt they were asbestos.

The tiles in picture 5 are definitely asbestos though.

Thank you for this comment, I was fully convinced I had gotten like incurable super cancer from the floor lol. Still a huge yikes, I'm gonna be sure to have some sort of mask situation next time just in case
