Abandoned Place Thread.

For some reason I really enjoy seeing photos of abandoned plants, cities, government areas, anything. Post any pics you have, find, etc.

idk but if there was a sufficient runway and could be made airworthy id try to fly it.

[primespark22]

Its considered "relatively" safe to visit, they give tours and stuff lol. I thought it was familar looking, the city was a mission in COD 4.

There's a cool website I found a while back, I think called something like UER, Urban Exploration Resource or something like that. You guys should check it out if you love photos like these.

People post tons of old pictures of cool old places. They're very sensitive about preserving their identity, so if you find it and join, make up a name or at least don't use your own.

[quickdodge®]

This thread would be just as cool if people on IA were posting pics that they took of abandoned places. That's what I thought this thread was about.

Abandoned spots are awesome. Later, QD.
