Old US Ruins Explorers - Neat Site for History

[Venture]

I stumbled across this and wanted to share. It's a group of guys who go to old abandoned places and photograph them. This link starts at the Scranton Lace Company, but at the bottom of the page you can go to other spots they've been. Very neat glimpse at what once was.

Very interesting stuff, great photography. Their work seems like good material for Discovery or the History Channel.

Awesome find, Venture! I love this kind of stuff. Photography is a hobby of mine and I love history so this will keep me busy for a while.

Thanks!

There is a community for this kind of thing on Live Journal. Some of the posts are fascinating. http://rural-ruin.livejournal.com/

Very cool, I think there must be places all around the country if you just look for them.

Is that the place they do a Halloween event at each year? I've never been there.
