A little time to sort of explore

Well it wasn't "true" exploring, actually was more work ... but still a cool place!
If you recognize it, and decide to go just bear in mind a large part of it is very occupied and I did have a guy approach me about what I was doing there who very obviously had a gun under his shirt. Fortunately he didn't pull it and was okay once he found out why I was there taking pictures and surveying the place. BEar in mind the pics aren't great but I was more working rather than trying for any artsy type stuff.

Whats left of the housing




Couple of shots of the inside




Dorm rooms and buildings






I dont think I have ever seen wood seats like this in a basket ball gym! Sort of cool actually.

Hey, thats pretty cool.


So they had an armed guy there watching the place? That seems a bit much...


I don't recognize this place at all.

I don't know it either but it sure doesn't look like it needs armed security.
Hey 2X,
Remember that "Where am I" game we used to play?
You and sam][am used to stump me all the time.

I'm a blatant waste of time and resources.

that was fun but folks that "didnt get it" posted pics of stuff nobody could possibly ever guess

it has to have a landmark or back ground or whatever to be fun

somebody nailed which high rise a shot I took from was

Maybe he was faculty ?

If I was a professor there, I would be packing some heat too!

yea, it's sad what the place has gone to, but I am VERY impressed with the new president, I think he has the vision, and more important drive and contacts to turn it around. I was also impressed at how much pride the kids have in the place even with it in the shape it is in.

It was funny though, my, who is black kept me from getting shot, then we went to Highland Park to pick up his kid who was playing a Basketball game and had to wait about 15 minutes so the white boy kept him from getting arrested!

But...you are ARMED, right...? [snort] Sorry. The caffeine is going to my head.

We had wooden bleachers in my high school, but they were the kind that pushed back against the wall (like probably most of us had). I've never seen any fixed like that. Beautiful, though.
