can u see this building from the roosevelt Boulavard

radical ed, i would like to put my "mark" at byberry because i think im pretty good at drawling and tagging but i have not been there yet and i would like to know where I could do it at that will be seen be people but not get messed up.

If I came across these in a book there is no way I could walk out of the bookstore without it! These are wonderful!

And time is cruel and while it may make things get ugly and decay it also makes these places more beautiful than they once were.

is that graffitii? the ? mark and arrow because i see alot of arrows sprayed on the wall in your images.

those old sinks go for a fair bit online. the metal legs make it much more valuable (nickel or brass?).

Reminds me of the first Silent Hill

cool shot, great angle!

Now these rooms and the building itself have taken on the insanity and the chaos of the patients who once roamed these halls.

Yeah Bassman, I don't know if its a Hammond or not, but it definitely is a dual keyboard organ, and not a piano. A piano would only have a single keyboard.

Wow, you're not kidding!
That's VERY f*cking impressive!

Me and My cousin went to the stairs of this building .. if you stand there long enough its almost as though someone is standing there with you..really scary stuff

This looks like the patient was looking at the building ... sick picture!!

This is one of the most impressive photos on this site.

The only way security will *chase* you is if you're a young person. Otherwise, they just ask you to leave and cell-phone the local police. Usually you have time to leave if you get the chance. Security CANNOT touch you, grab you, or physically restrain you though. It IS true that security is forbidden to go in the buildings, but the Philadelphia Police will make that decision as the situation allows. Friends of mine have been chased AND arrested inside by the police, but their infractions were stupid, dangerous, and unforgivable. RESPECT your local police. If you taunt them or throw stuff at them or in any way endanger them, they WILL kick your ass and haul you in. If security is hassling you and no police have yet been involved, it would probably benefit you to go inside and get away from that area as quickly as possible. Then again you have to leave sometime, and believe me, they WILL be waiting for you if you're not careful. Don't go in blind. Your chances of screwing up are much greater if you don't know what you're doing.
