Posted by momorokoko Are there many places to visit around the Vancouver region? Im from Quebec so I dont seem to see much abandoned or historical places other than construction zones and possibly rooftopping if security is lax.

La belle province.... I miss it, I grew up 5 min away from the old Quebec.
Vancouver has some neat place to explore. Nothing like in Europe where you can easily find new places daily. Vancouver's land value makes it that once a place is disused. it is quickly torn down and something new is built. It seem when ever you find a new place, withing weeks or months it get demolish.
that said, Ive been in several WWII bunkers, we have several bridges that are accessible to the savy ones, we have a few cool drains. our mental hospital is the gem... but security has been very active out there, and now one of the condemned building have metal plates covering the windows on bottom two floors of the building... old shipyard crane in north van is gone, a old boat stern that was on land is also gone... I am not much for checking out abandoned houses (tend to be boring) or doing infiltration of active places.
we have a few cool place, but once you been a few times... the appeal gets lost. I have pretty much stopped urban exploration. I only get back into it everytime I travel overseas tho. Europe has the quantity and quality that vancouver lack.
