- WordsnCollision, on 08/24/2008, -0/+26Interesting the appeal that ruins & abandonments have for us - and cool that Flickr empowers people to capture and share them.
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -0/+10With the housing market in the toilet, there is no shortage of abandoned places now. I think that list will get longer in the future.
- motionblur, on 08/24/2008, -0/+8I'm the organizer for a 500+ member urban exploration group in Toronto, called the Toronto Exploration Society. We have a growing collection of images on Flickr from our exploration of abandoned buildings and structures around the Great Lakes area: http://flickr.com/groups/tes/pool/
These are my personal photos from our exploration of abandoned places: http://flickr.com/search/?q=abandoned&w=68633198%4 ...
There is an excellent blog by another urban explorer going by the name CopySix from Ontario: http://urbexbarrie.blogspot.com/ - ryan83189, on 08/25/2008, -0/+5While a camera and tripod make you look suspicious everywhere else, it is the best way to trespass in places like that. I guess cops and locals know you are there to take photos, not do drugs and vandalize so they let you go about your business most of the time.
- suxmonkey, on 08/24/2008, -0/+5I just love that there is an entire section dedicated to photographs of places you aren't supposed to go. Reminds me of this site dedicated to such images: http://www.strictlynophotography.com/
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -0/+5I love seeing urban expedition pictures, these ones are great
- tewstep, on 08/25/2008, -0/+2I was expecting the standard "Abandoned Russian Underground Ghost Town" post.
/s being thorough, I'm always a fan of the abandoned places pics... - motionblur, on 08/24/2008, -0/+2Even before the the housing market began to collapse, Detroit and Buffalo were mostly in ruins. Both cities have downtown cores that are empty, abandoned or collapsing. I can only image it's going to get worse.....much, much worse.
- stackered, on 08/25/2008, -0/+2You know what really grinds my gears?
Titles with words like "Spectacular" or "Mind-blowing"... - Velnich, on 08/25/2008, -0/+2I'm in Toronto, what's a good way for someone to start if they're interested in dabbling?
- bananasluggy, on 08/25/2008, -0/+2I keep thinking, "Man, if that building were anywhere popular, it'd have been made into million-dollar lofts a long time ago." Especially that church. (When churches are abandoned, does god have to fill out a "change of address" card?) Old Gothic-style churches just beg to be made into awesome homes. Who doesn't love huge stained-glass windows... besides people who have to worry about heating in the winter?
Tangent: Three most annoying words used in titles:
Stunning: "... nope. Still conscious."
Awe inspiring: "...awwwww inspiring, maybe..." (and not the cute 'aww' but the 'you totally missed' aww.)
LQQK: "......" - WiretapStudios, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1I do this a lot. I have a few up on Flickr, but I have a ton more to add. Some of those are pretty impressive though, I'm jealous I'm not near them to break in.

- magnusdopus, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1I need some pics on that abandoned amusement/water park you pass when driving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. That has to be the most ill-conceived place of all time. The place is in the middle of nowhere.
- motionblur, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1Join our group! :) www.torontoexplorationsociety.com
Instructions are on the website. - waterboy1628, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1a cool place, also the set of some scenes from transformers 2: http://i.pbase.com/v3/94/385194/2/51188811.IMG0743 ...
- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1Great pics. I have a strange attraction to abandoned places.
- grintoul, on 09/24/2008, -0/+1I think there's always something quite haunting about abandoned places - not in a spooky way, but more in a makes-you-think-about-the-people-who-were-once-here kinda way.
Also, I'm disproportionately excited about the fact I was the 1000th person to Digg this story. That makes me pretty sad, I know... - jayrodnoonan, on 08/26/2008, -0/+1My uncle and aunt bought a little old church and made an awesome home out of it, and I think the people they sold it to turned it into a bed and breakfast.
- RocquesDiggs, on 08/28/2008, -0/+1I like to visit old gold mining towns in California. The old buildings are great, and I have some photos of them on some websites. They are great to photograph. Old Route 66 is another icon in abandonment and history. Traveling the back roads is one way to see what high speed (internet?) travel has done to America. That includes the water park on the way to Las Vegas. However the World's Largest Thermometer is still keeping temperature in Baker, CA.
- antdude, on 08/25/2008, -0/+1And Internet.
- LouieGee, on 08/31/2009, -0/+0Utterly, utterly spectacular. Who'd have thought that urban decay could be so beautiful (in a strangely desolate way)?
- AriaStar, on 08/25/2008, -1/+1The title tells is it's Flickr collections, and you have to tell us? Anyone who doesn't know that needs to go take Internet 101.
- johnnyOnline, on 08/25/2008, -2/+2related (cleaner) blog:
http://industrialdecay.blogspot.com/ - IzMan2008, on 08/24/2008, -1/+1One building had clothes hanging to be dried, not so abandoned
- magnusdopus, on 08/25/2008, -1/+1Look at this map then zoom out.
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=h&layer=c&cbll=3 ... - AdeleMor, on 08/25/2008, -1/+0Cool subject, though other sites do this much better.
- GardenDoor, on 08/25/2008, -2/+1Do you guys think any homeless people sleep in these places on occasion? Also, I wonder if any young adventurous couple has tip-toed their way in any of these places and had sex? That's hot. One more thing, I wonder if any kids have gone exploring in any of these locations and had a "Goonies" type experience. Oh man, seeing things like this makes my childlike imagination go wild.
