Had a creepy find yesterday at that health club I posted about last year. Our group of five discovered it last September, and I went back alone in November for a GoPro walkthrough. About a month after that, I was going through pictures, and noticed something - what appeared to be an open doorway that we had somehow all completely missed, despite having walked right past it many times.
Yesterday I had the chance to briefly dip back with one other person from the original group. Turns out there was a door there, but it was pitch black inside, with tons of insulation hanging from the ceiling. I poked the camera in an took a pic. We weren't disappointed.

Was scoping out a location. This place was so much bigger in person! I was amazed by how tall the clock tower was but also the surrounding warehouses. Those were behemoths, but I didn't get any good photos of them.

Moments after this was taken the security monitoring the internal CCTV and loudspeaker combo went all shouty and kindly requested we vacate the premises...

Posted by Benched_it A well known location and a fun one...
Ahh, memories. What's the interior like now? Has the side collapsed yet?
A couple of weeks back I decided to kayak out to Fishing Battery Island, now a bird sanctuary in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay near Havre de Grace. I wanted to check out the island's lighthouse, built in 1853 by John Donahoo but abandoned since at least 1972. It is now flooded and gutted, with the upper floors inaccessible without a long ladder. The four-mile journey out was quite easy, but on the return journey I discovered that this was a double-edged sword: the current coming out of the river had carried me down to the island, but was working against me as I tried to paddle back up to town. I was very nearly exhausted by the time a couple of guys in a sailboat offered to tow me back upriver, an offer which I greatly accepted. Next time I take a boat to explore a location, it had damn well better have a motor.
