Description
Hello, this Pinetop Jackson, and I'd like to welcome you to my 2nd channel! My main channel felt like it was getting a bit crowded, too much subject matter between the Guitarchaeology, the amateur woodworking w/ reclaimed materials, and doing random stuff with the kids...but I did want to start documenting another hobby of mine, hiking & urban exploration!
This hobby started when I was a kid. I grew up in a small Indiana town, and any free time I had was spent outdoors, exploring woods, trails, railroad tracks, and of course venturing into any abandoned structures I came across!
For nearly a decade we lived in the Pacific Northwest near Seattle...there's plenty of beautiful locations for hiking, but the creepy abandoned properties are harder to come by.
Now my family lives in Detroit, and I am just AMAZED by all the huge abandoned factories & school buildings that are just wide open, begging to be explored!

As someone in another country where art deco is not only coveted, it costs at least 20% more than another property of the same size and location, this STUNNING building would NEVER have been vacant or abandoned! I can’t believe this is sitting empty and slowly decaying! Developers where I live in Australia would’ve been fighting one another to get their hands on this!

To see something with such beautiful design fall into such a state hurts my heart.

Very nicely produced piece. When I was a kid my family were the superintendents of a slightly larger, nice but not quite as nice building as this in the Bronx. Luckily it survives and is still occupied last time I drove by. Then in my career I restored many buildings of this time period, some in even worse shape than this if you can believe it. I also tried and failed many times to find clients willing to save others. This is a particularly noteworthy building, I hope something good happens.
