| | | Hard to believe it's still abandoned. Would have figured some developer (cough) Glengarry Glen Ross type would have been selling lots for One Million Dollars apiece. Damn, why not at this point... Good work. There's another island or two out there, good to take a bike. Mod: Barnston Island. [last edit 6/22/2010 3:18 AM by A. Lien - edited 1 times]

Yeah but google maps says the island is Richmond Island. There are a lot of abandoned places along the River. I found a couple of buildings today and took some pictures.

| | | When I was working on the buses, I spent many a lunch hour down there. We worked nights, and made it much more fun.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too! |
