I was at kppc last night, I dont think it is haunted but I guess that is something you should find out for yourself. Dont go inside though. SHITLOADS of cops, asbestos, rat crap, a few homeless people, alarms (yes inside also) and a decaying support beams. Be safe.

i would love 2 come here but being in a place like this myself at the age of 14 brings back stuff i never wanna think of again iv been here never inside

i have recently traveled here with three friends and we snuck inside and explored the entire building is was fascinating. We were scared shitlles, but it was a great expirience.

amazing colors once again. i can't get over how beautful this place is.

this whole shot just screams hope to me, so pretty.

this would make a great place for a myspace photoshoot. lawlz. i love the colors.

honestly some of the rooms in here give me nothing but a calm feeling, i'm not afraid, i like it.

love the colors, this is gorgeous.

aw, what a sad and terribly lonely picture.
i think i'm in love.

this doesn't seem very scary to me, actually beautiful. <3

Now that I look again, the radio was at the top next to the television, so that second door underneath was probably for record storage. I doubt it was equipped with Stereo as that didn't arrive until 59 or so.

My father was a TV repair man in the 50's and 60's and I remember these sets vividly. That door under the picture tube was a phonograph, you can see the tone arm hanging down. This probably played 78's MAYBE 45's. The other side probably held a AM/FM radio. This was the late 50's answer to an entertainment center. There were no VCR's at the time. We were the first ones on the block to have color TV and I remember everyone coming over Sunday night to watch "Disney's Wonderful World of Color" show as it was called, Tinkerbell would fly around and splash color all over, it was a BIG THING back then!! One of the few shows broadcase in color. And the proper way to "deactivate" a picture tube is from the back. Just snap off the end of the long thin tube and you'll hear the suction going in. Doing it from the front either with a rock or your foot makes it "implode" as the inside is a vacuum. (I learned a lot from my dad!)

wow, that wold be awesome on my door!!

i did my training in building 7..and yes i had to transport bodies to the morgue.
