After starting the morning with a predawn trip to visit the “Asbestos Theater” at C•• it was comparably nice and relaxing to head over to this hospital for a nice walk through the campus and explore a few buildings.

I can’t remember if this was my second or third trip to the east coast, but with all my trips, every time, I have had the wonderful opportunity of meeting some rad explorers who are exceptional photographers as well. After meeting Adv Pack at the baseball field we hit the luscious green lawn campus and explored it’s beautiful red bricked buildings.

The best part was listening to him Beatbox casually as we travelled through the dead hospital. I think he only stopped when we realized that other people (potential redevelopers) were in the building, on the floor beneath the one we were exploring.

In honor of our gracious host and his love for analog, I did shoot on film here as well. These are redundant but I’ve included them for Adv.

Thanks to Adv for the wonderful time.

I hope next time you can come along to other locations. I wish I had made my visit here while the other buildings were still standing. I’d love to come back and look again, at all the stuff I missed due to time constraints. It’d be awesome to meet up again and explore. Let me know if you ever journey west.

Thanks for looking.

Haha! I don't even realize I'm beatboxing most of the time. It just sounds so good in empty rooms I just can't help it.


You are due for another trip over here. This was so long ago!

In the last few years I started carrying a Nikon film body (as well as upgrading from the D90 to the D800) it works great because I use the "D" style Nikon glass and they fit both my digital as well as film bodies.

I love this place!

I'm trying to figure out which pictures are my favorite, but I just can't decide. They're all awesome!

That place is beautiful, I love seeing shots from there. I still haven't gone even though I'm not too far away.

Stellar job. Saw the aerials of that place, and it's still at the top of my list of "long hauls that are worth it"

Epic shots; glad to see it's still in fantastic shape despite the non-use.

Some gorgeous shots in there. The bathroom ones have some nice color with the tiles.

Nice work. my only gripe is that the video didn't have a beatbox score.

I have to go back here one day to see the rest of the place. I've only gotten into one small building.

Can't believe how untouched that place is. Beautiful shots. Must have been unreal to walk up to.

Untouched because it's an active campus with security guards patrolling most of the day.
