Yes, that is quite a feat! I must ask, how on Earth did you manage to make it up there?

Are we talking about the one in the lower left-hand corner that looks demonic? Sort of like the Scream character? Damn, it almost looks like its wearing a black hood or has long black hair. *shiver*

I've seen this place before (photos of it) on photographyreview.com one of the members there did some work with their Holga at this local.

That was also my question about this place. When you see lots of windows with bracing it makes you think they are trying to save it. Otherwise, why not just let it crumble naturally at its own pace?
Also, what is the boarding up above the balcony that runs parallel to the ground?

I was just wondering if you know if there is any talk of them trying to save the building? Why brace up the windows and support the balcony if they arent goin to do anything with it.

You are a wonderful photographer! I have never studied it but the way you constrast the lighting and make it feel like more than just an abandoned building is amazing. I would love to explore things like this but not enough nerve. Thanks for the website.
