Photo Contest #45 - Urban Exploration [voting]

Another great turnout to start the calendar year everyone.



1 - Taken December 2006. The 1st 2-story home in calgary, abandoned, then taken over by drug addicts, then adandoned again. Its a historic site so they cant tear it down. All around it is development, Arriva, stampede expansion, and keynote will be closest.



2 - Untitled

9 - The Buffalo Central Terminal, abandoned in 1979, vacant since. Check out the entire kick-ass photo thread.


10 - This is the Zodiac Lounge in the now vacant Dallas Grand, formerly the Statler Hilton. During its heyday, this is where money would stay in Dallas.. In addition to its long list of celebrity guests, the motion picture “The Giant”, staring James Dean was filmed here. ---- This photo is looking south through the lounge. The crazy fireplace in the background you see replaced a motorized stage that would lift entertainment from the floor below. Elvis sang on that very stage a number of times. Evidently, he stayed at the Statler quite often. The Dallas Grand has been vacant since 1999. It's rooms are still guest-ready with the exception of a little dust. It makes for a very eerie scene.
Canon 20D / 17-55 f/2.8 13 sec @ f/22


11 - Untitled


12- A classroom in Sombra Public School, built AD 1914.
