Opsal Steel Warehouse

Its open again, folks. One of the last remaining industrial warehouses in Vancouver. But it won't last so get in while you still can. It's on 2nd and Ontario.

[entry details removed]

The upstairs storage and office areas are safe and sound, as far as I can tell. The rooftop to the left of the upstairs storage is also safe to walk on. DO NOT try to climb up to the top trolley system. You will most likely fall and die.

If anyone's been down to the basement I'd love to know what the conditions are like down there. Each time I've been in I've forgotten to bring a flashlight.

Get in while you can, it slated to be turned into condos soon, compliments of the 2010 Olympics. I am going again this weekend.

You can see some of my pics here:

Sure has been a lot of folks in there over the summer. Lotsa nifty Flickr flicks to see. Posting entry details on forum = not cool, but whatever, it gets boarded back up so fast.

I think the basement was flooded last time I went? Can't remember.

I'm surprised it's still standing, but I seem to recall their plans for Opsal weren't the average tear-it-down evil. I saw a rendering a while back that had another eyesore of a condo rising from inside a rebuilt Opsal... bleah. As if Vancouver hasn't already lost enough industrial/commercial land.
