- revansii, on 03/10/2008, -3/+26I could be wrong but wasn't this already on Digg once before?
- bhaelochon, on 03/10/2008, -1/+18Yes, two or three times.
- redrighthand, on 03/10/2008, -0/+16everything on DIGG has been on DIGG 2 or 3 times and expect 4 or 5 or 6 in the future
- johnnystars, on 03/10/2008, -3/+14regardless of whether this was on Digg before -- these photos are welcome reminders of a bye-gone era. Thanks for posting!
- inactive, on 03/10/2008, -0/+6Gives me the creeps.
Somehow I fear vampires, zombies, or devil's rejects lurking near by, just waiting for the first traveler's to break down... - 22magnum, on 03/11/2008, -0/+6notice how a lot of the failed businesses have "vista" in the name?
- Chakat, on 03/10/2008, -0/+5It's not a ripoff. The same person owns both sites; it just looks like the owner decided to spin the Lost America content to a site of its own.
- dannydowney, on 03/10/2008, -1/+6great photos, my first time reading it
- superpaulio, on 03/11/2008, -0/+3That picture of "Route 666 South" looks almost too good to be true. Absolutely amazing!

I had a photography magazine years ago that featured an artist who shot at night.
Uberlong exposures reveal such a different range of coloring, compared to daylight or lamplight,
that the world appears to be from some kind of alternate universe.
I always meant to experiment with the technique but never did. I think the time has come. - Thugacation, on 03/11/2008, -0/+3Every repost is a repost of a repost, etc.
- LeZeb, on 03/10/2008, -1/+4oh ok! thanks for making that clear
- Eslamicolt3, on 03/10/2008, -1/+4Reminds me of Pixar's "Cars"
- inactive, on 03/10/2008, -0/+2Great site, it it is being hammered by the Digg effect. I frequent that site and other abandoned/urban exploration sites. Very interesting to see history rot away.
- Dumbledorito, on 03/10/2008, -0/+2Not one former Nickerson Farms building? Has this man no taste in abandoned buildings??
- LeZeb, on 03/10/2008, -1/+3Oups, I don't want to make a duplicata, can you point me to the submission linking to the website ? it didn't pop in the list when I submitted the link
- Canadian0207, on 03/10/2008, -2/+4yes it has. several times.
- beloitpiper, on 03/10/2008, -0/+2I love this site! I've been reading it for years and it motivated me to get into photography.
- shortmilton, on 03/11/2008, -0/+2I ain't much of a photographer,so those are''stunning''to me.Great pics.
- inactive, on 03/11/2008, -0/+2The link is now working, and the photographers makes me jealous with their skills. I'm a new Digger, so this is the first time I've seen this.
- LeZeb, on 03/10/2008, -5/+6YES it was posted before, sorry about that, please bury it
It was even posted lately from another website address who ripped off all the content from the original website: http://www.designshed.com/lostamerica/index.html - 2bees, on 03/10/2008, -0/+1Well damn, it got overloaded with diggers I guess. :-(
- Bravesguy18, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Reminds me of every scary movie I've ever seen, guys. Guys?
- roosterjack, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Looks like a location from horror movies.
- wrathchilde, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Sucked in by Sandcrawler-like icon...
- donna1234, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1A great collection of pictures from the abandoned places you can find along the roads of the west states

- tchowe, on 03/10/2008, -2/+2""I could be wrong but wasn't this already on Digg once before?""
This is the 3rd time I've seen it, and I don't even check Digg on a daily basis... - looper, on 03/12/2008, -0/+0What? No photos of Bodie, CA? That's classic abandoned west...

sklep wędkarski, kołowrotki, sondy, żyłki, wypływy na dorsza - zzt711, on 03/11/2008, -1/+1This has been posted twice already, buried..
- themastersb, on 03/11/2008, -1/+1Digg isn't supposed to be 4chan though
- insanebrain, on 03/10/2008, -1/+1You don't ?? shame on you.
- nasgorkam, on 03/10/2008, -1/+0cool :)
- inactive, on 03/10/2008, -3/+2It's a perennial favorite. Every new user stumbles across it and rushes in with an "OMG - INCREDIBLE PICS!!!"
You'd think Digg would have a little bit better mechanism for filter out the dups. - themastersb, on 03/11/2008, -2/+1How many freaking times do we need to see pictures of the abandoned west?
- MrTea, on 03/11/2008, -2/+1anyone else notice that the indian was doing the nazi salute?
- coheedcollapse, on 03/10/2008, -2/+1Yeah. Nowadays you have to either have zero friends or 1,000 friends to get to the front page. Anything in between and you're screwed.
- cawpin, on 03/10/2008, -5/+3*****.
- whalt, on 03/11/2008, -4/+1Does anyone honestly think this woman would have her job if it wasn't because she was a reasonably attractive young woman with a flirtatious personality? Enough with the tech bimbos already. I have no problems with women covering tech but hire someone who knows how to do their job not just giggle and bounce. The real sexism is in thinking that appearance is the only reason to hire a woman.
- LingLing1337, on 03/10/2008, -8/+2Sometimes I think about reposting an old Digg story to get to front page, and then realize that I would just look like a dick. Oh, and Digg's new algorithm wouldn't allow me to, since I'm a lowly commenter.
