Great Photo Back behind the stage in the theater (the wall in between has fallen in the reveal a glimpse of the floor next to it.)

Sadly This Tunnel is now gone but you can still cruel threw a few others that they filled in/Smashed. =p

Lol You take any pictures in the Galt building by kirkbride it has Hundreds of beds in there...

So This is were chairs go when they die.

This room is right across from the theater and is covered is White Dust (Asbestos) And Security used it as a dumping ground for mattresses lol kinda like how Stedman and Bell is now used for storage of chairs and stuff...Oh yeah they added a rather pathetic looking fence to the property too

Must be a recent map as it is labled ICF-MR which is an Imtermediate Care Facility for the Mentally Retarded. Usually headed up by the "Q" which is the QMRP which stands for Qualified Mental Retardation Professiona.

Why do you hide the locations of some of your "haunts". I live in Texas and by taking one small line from the bio you wrote of this place and googling it I was able to find the original article that it came from? I mean it does make it a little more fun to track it for yourself, but in this day and age almost nothing stays hidden long thanks to the WWW. Anyway just wondering. =)

~400 acres which was mostly farm land and cemetery. The 75 acres which Walmart bought contained almost all the buildings.

I have a recovered Dixmont brick in my room! Most of the time bricks and blocks from demo'd buildings are sold as clean fill for contractors leveling land.

This is fucked up. I skated in this school before they knocked it down. Its a badass place

Those two in the front are certainly getting wild.. Oh and by the way does anyone else see the "cat" under the chair to the left of the two getting crazy?

Its a shame to see it idle ,I think I read somewhere that Stamping Machine was one of the largest in the country when it was installed.Capable of stamping out large automobile hoods and roof pannels.

The balconies(platforms with railings )were stock rooms served buy overhead crane that was up near the roof.Remember this was before just in time delivery.(CKD) Completly knocked down cars and trucks where boxed and shipped around the word for assemley in other countries.As well as Studebaker Plants in Los Angelis and Canada.And service parts depots in every major city in the world.Today we speak of globalization,Studebaker was global when things still moved by horse and steam locomotive.Their slogan was,The roads of the world are rutted deep from the wheels of Studebaker Wagons and Buggies.

Strange how the bags to the far right almost look like a body. The red bag being the back of the shirt with the body all curled up and the beige bag being the head.

This is a great but sad picture. I used to work at the corporate offices of this company in this picture and my husband worked at the Tooling Centre. Great photography.

Thats funny!
