These balconies are the best for having summertime cookouts on. Hauling charcoal, ice, coolers, and grills up the six-or-so flights of stairs blows chunks, but it's a lot of fun when it gets going.

I love how the broken window frames this shot. The symmetry of the top two glass shards is really interesting and strange that it would be so perfect.

Byberry fascinates me. I don't know why... I was in there 1 time. SpookY place. There's definately an asbestos issue within the entire complex... I agree with Figusmakem though, "A mother that cares" you need to hit that "X" at the top of your window. You only have to look at what you want to. Noone's puting a gun to your head to visit opaicty.us...

As for the Photo above, where are those balconys ? Are they visible from the BlvD ?

At the time of this photo, both doors opening out to that balcony were probably still boarded up. After a little while, someone broke one of the doors open and people started tagging.
