Thanks bro but not my Birthday.. :-) I took a friend as a gift to him. He has been wanting to visit for a couple of years now. We can do a meet up and visit a couple "haunts". Would most likely be a Sunday or middle of the week. Sundays are better because my girlfriend is home and I have a "get out of jail" call in case we run into trouble. During the week it wouldn't be good seeing that she works in the same department I would get bailed out of... lol

Sorry I have been AWOL on the JS thing guys... News is, we cannot visit. Just talked with a photographer who was arrested this past weekend up there and they didn't even enter the building. Apparently the from my source, the doors have been sealed and they are actively patrolling the site now. I am sorry, I know you guys were looking forward to visiting. I guess the community has cracked down on the owner "Crow Construction" about securing the building because of the collapse and I guess someone fell down the empty tower elevator shaft there. With that pressure the owners have gone to the police to step up patrols. I will keep my eyes & ears open if anything changes and also include you in on any upcoming adventures.

Thats a bummer...I knew I should have made a trip last year.

Well, I think that just makes existing photos all the more valuable. :up:

I hope that's true Matt. This coming week I am opening my UrbEx online gallery. "The Art of Decay" Hopefully there will be interest.
