Albion Normal School is located about 40 miles off the high way in Albion, Id. It was basicly a state teachers school that closed in the early 70's.

I know this is a way old post, but does anyone know if the building is still standing or in use? The only information I could find on the net (granted I'm rather computer illiterate) says Albion is looking for developers, that was in 06. Also it's on the national register of historic places. Does this mean that if I'm caught inside there's a bigger fine/consequence? And does anyone have any clues on accessibility? It's a four hour drive for me and it would be a real bummer to take a day off work and not be able to get in. Finally, does anyone have clearer directions, or is it fairly easy to find?
Thanks!

There's always a way in, and I see three in the pics above.

As far as HM's (historical markers or sites), I'm not aware of any laws stating any extra illegal enforcement besides the no tresspassing thing.

In CA, if you get caught in gov facilites or historical sites, they will prosecute you or let those who own the site (private orgs/clubs) handle the matter. But I'm not aware of ID laws.

I'd do research on the web, or call your local police (non-emerg number) from a payphone. Ask them the question directly, and they'll give you the answer.

Or just UE it...

If you are savvy enough, they will let you in for a tour. Just tell them you are a freelancer and would like some archive photos. A news team did a story on it not too long ago.

They would like to see it saved, but time is running out. Luckily it's in Albion and not Boise. It would be gone already to make way for your favorite shopping center.

The one I mentioned above is just like that too. All the windows were broken by vandals.

Looks like it was sold. http://www.realtya...ubp=1&nws=1&nid=52

Not sure what they would do with it though.

I'm going to try to get a phone number and call them.

I was down there about two months ago, I just happened to stumble onto this place. I didn't see any easy ways in, but there are about six separate buildings and I'm sure that there must be a way into one of them. They were watering the grass while I was there, which seemed odd. And yes I realize that a piece of plywood is missing, but the inner door was also boarded over.
