I absolutely love abandoned structures, esp. ones of the London Underground, you should consider lining up a trip to do just that. Amazing stuff, I have been sifting through your shots and how you frame each shot is a work of art, really tells the story of these old buildings. One can really get a feel for how it felt to actually be working in these places. And the design of these massive structures, esp. the plants, to consider that all of that had to be designed and built, and that it was all built so well that they lasted 100+ years, boggles the mind. Thank you for risking life and limb to bring these old places to life, ever consider making a documentary movie on a few of these places? You get a crew together and shoot it, I will edit it for you! I happen to be a Video editor in Portland, OR. and I work for channel 6 as well as freelance out of my basement. Let me know, I think it would make an amazing series, Discovery's Abandoned Moderna.

a friend sendt me a link to your page and i must say i am blown away by your images!! i do photography as well, in my spare time, and this has inspired me,and has given me some neat ideas!! Awesome work!!

Hi, i come here recently till my study in high school...a few years...
your galleries are incredible, nice work...

I inspire myself to create my own site about hotel ruins of SIGORD HOTEL whitch is located in Slanske hills in Slovakia.

It is free site , not so good as yours...but a nice galleries from this hotel ruin in hills, hotel is about 20 plus years abandoned...and now in 2013 is really in not good shape...my last visit of this hotel inside was in march 2013, and i decided for my personal safety that was last visit definitelly.

here is a link at my site:

I just came across this site recently and cannot get enough of it!! I have a fascination with abandoned houses & buildings and just love looking at all of your pictures.

Love the photography-especially where you were able to get inside in the buildings. Please check out my site-specifically on the Kings Park Psychiatric Center--and let me know what you think. Feedback and comments are most welcomed. Looking forward to more of you work. My best, Jackie Stevens.

I have been a fan of your photography for years, and constantly changing my computer background to one of your amazing photographs. Thank you is simply not enough, your photographs always seem to remind me that even the most old and forgotten things can still retain beauty and intrigue.

I have long dreemed of makeing a horror movie and seeing this house i feel that it would be a nice place to film, i am only 15 but if you think that their is even a chance for me to live my dream in the near futer please contact me and give a very in depth response on how bad the floors are if they would cave in at any time.

Just stumbled across your site - magnificent photography!

As the author of THE 13TH DAY (based around Glenn Dale Hospital), I've visited your site several times over the years and have always been amazed at the level of curiosity and intrigue surrounding this empty? place. Just wanted to let other visitors to the site know that if they're REALLY interested in the hospital, they MUST READ, The 13th Day, by Dee Allo. It's available in hardcover, paperback and a special $2 eBook, wherever books are sold, or on our storefront at www.lulu.com/spotlight/FantaePublishing

Thanks Mr. Motts! I am using some of the amazing images you have and some of the graphics for a school website. (I have to make a fake wordpress using HTML 5) I appreciate the use of the images!!

What a wonderful site to sit, view and daydream. Thanks for capturing this history.

I am so happy I found this site. I love it! I have always be fascinated by stuff like this. Thank you so much for doing this!!!!

How wonderful it is that you are preserving these images of so long ago.

This site peaks my interest even more into human psychology. I am studying for my AA in Psychology and an AA in Art as well. Thanks for this site!!!

This site is incredible.

HENRY W LONGFELLOW PHILA PUBLIC SCHOOL ANYONE HAVE ANY PICTURES

Interesting article. Overall, I had no idea about all this. It is a pity that there are no comments. We are happy we can talk about it. But I would recommend to a friend

Just found this site & can't wait to explore all the catagories. They had an open house at Worcester State in the early or mid 80's. I went & was amazed at all the old buildings and the setup for the patients. I never thought all that would be left is the clocktower but not sure how long before they tear that down too.

I'm new to this site and find myself coming back again and again. Makes me melancholy to see these old places, all but forgotten. I wonder about the souls who were in the hospitals (my favorites, by the way) and whether they were ever cured and or released.... or were these walls the last thing they saw. History is fascinating! Disappointing however to see taggers with absolutely no respect.
