To quote Billy Joel...

"We didn't start the fire" but it did add to a the ambiance. I had the Warehouses on my "to see" list for the day but there wasn't much left...

1. I guess there won't be much too see of these Warehouses next time I'm there

2.

3.


4. A little lead paint never hurt anyone... right?


5.


6. ... the table was missing the 8 ball ...

7.


8.


9.


10.


11.


12.


13. Urinals by the window for the exhibitionists


14.


15.


16.


17.


18.


19.


20.


21.


22.


23. ... tease ...

24.


25.


26.


27.


28.


29.


30.



Minus the looming smell of smoke in the air, it was a beautiful day to get out and explore ... nothing like a big game to keep people busy.

p.s. I apologize for not doing the whole formal introduction thing but ... I'm more of a dive right in kind of gal. Hope that wasn't rude.... but my husband said he married me cause I was just as big of an a$$ as him so I suppose that says something too.... Happy Day!

EDIT: IF anyone knows how to get into the hospital, I will drive my ass up there for an overnight hospital adventure.

Nice to meet all of your acquaintances as well!

You're right, that does look like it was a great building... too bad some fire bug had other ideas for it. Although I'm thinking the old adage of "don't tease the animals" applies here ... = creating urbex envy in this girl ;o) Thank you for sharing those photos... and if you find out the POE and need a buddy, I'm a hop, skip, and a jump away from there :o)

I have many plans for such a big place... now I just need to find the time!

Such a great location! I had the privilege of exploring around there a few months ago. Definitely a shame about the fire. =\

Wonderful set! I love the radiator hanging in #5 and the "not" secured door in #8.

Thank you... I was amazed at how strong those heaters were. I actually saw three like that still holding on. I actually named the door picture "Call me Captain Obvious but I somehow doubt this"!
