    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

historic building sitting empty

historic building sitting empty

how about this next- historic building sitting empty;
 
Just my luck. I work at a psych hospital and the old building, built in the 1870s, sits abandoned in all it's creepy glory just around the corner. I'm on vacation alllll week and not relishing the thought of going down there...

Looks like an old school that has more asbestos in it than a old navy ship. The utilities to heat it (never was cooled) would send the school budget into the crapper.
 
It's the old Molson Brewery building in Edmonton Alberta, Canada. Here is another pic of the sign on top of the building. The developer is going to turn it into condos apparently.
I love those old brick buildings.

Nothing to be sorry for, it's a great tag! Maybe I'll find something around here today.
 
Here is the main building of the sprawling old abandoned Sheraton Wayfarer in Manchester, NH. Not brick or pretty, but historic in that 30 years ago this was a "happening" place for a stretch of local history. Presidential candidates gathered at our "first in the nation" NH primary conventions, large corporate parties always going on, dancing and frolicking, etc...but now sits empty and a target of graffiti.....and a part of my history back in my younger single days!
Quote from an old travel review....

"Located on the scenic and historic site of John Goffe's Grist Mill, our unique layout compliments the countryside while our covered bridge, mill pond, and waterfalls lend a real New England flavor. While rich in history we offer newly renovated guestrooms, and a full service hotel with a health and fitness center, complete with outdoor pool, restaurant serving 3 meals daily, and our famous Quaker's Bar & Grill featured in the NY Times. We are home to one of the largest convention spaces in the state, featuring 9 distinctive meeting rms and 2 unique ballrooms...."

BTW, this game started with old abandoned buildings in thread #5 over a year ago.

Next up you'll have to go to the upscale part of town to find a working fountain in the front yard....make sure and clean up your bike before cruising that section of the hood.

Yeah, watch out for the private security guys in black shirts that want to break your face and camera, too!:eek::)
 
OK, Today I'll open the tag to any working fountain, in a public place or otherwise. The residents are getting nervous seeing all these bikes cruising their neighborhoods.
