Abandonment

Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD)

By dave | June 27, 2010

I have visited NAWCAD three times now. Once was at night, but the two daytime trips were made in absolutely oppressive heat. The second trip’s hazards also included workers actively gathering scrap metal from the site as we shot. However, despite the blazing heat and difficult entrance, everything worked out pretty well, and I was…

Sweating Bullets State Hospital

By dave | April 4, 2010

Unfortunately, this is one of those locations where the best parts of the story will have to remain a mystery. There was nothing particularly difficult about exploring this place but, being a 100% active campus with abandoned wings interspersed with active wings, things were definitely very interesting. I remember that the day we went here…

DeSisto School

By dave | February 3, 2010

The DeSisto School was an experiment in alternative education methods for gifted but troubled children. There are many accounts of former residents of the boarding school on the internet, very few of them positive. Reports of abuse and mistreatment culminate in a story of the faculty allegedly delaying treatment for a girl who swallowed a…
