Thanx for the help on the artist i just found the info its Ataraxia by Tean Sleep i really thank you for the help though cause i would've gotten nowhere if it was for ya thanx a million
pretty cool, I remember going down there as a kid in the mid 70's with some of my sister and some of her friends from highschool, we would sneak in through a big metal door on the east bank. I'll always remember thre were these long steel girders that stuck out and her friends would walk out on them.
For those too young to remember, these buildings were luxury apartments. Nearby were excellent schools, large houses of worship of all kinds, and safe streets. These abandoned luxury apartments are a bitter example of what happens when a nation fails to manage its demographics!
let's see some truly abandoned places instead of ones that are cleaned up and opened for safe tourist-style viewing by the city engineer's office. not to dis, but going to a "museum" doesn't really count as urban exploring.
There was a public school that was abandoned and we would run around the building. I had found a box of slides but not fully appreciating what I had found I tossed them.
ive been threre its cool.i live in cleveland so thats why.i wish no places on earth were abonded though!!! and when i was in the bottom a crater fell on the scary tracks!i ased my parents 10000 time about why it was abonded! it makes me sad to see abanded places
its always on holiday weekends like the saturday before memorial day, 4th of july, labor day, stuff like that. if you google something like '2009 cleveland subway tour' im sure you might find a page with the dates listed.
you need to make a petition for them too open it more often, with the money they make they can slowly begin restoration and make it into a community interest building- perhaps art, etc
only problem is that they currently do not charge anything for people to take the self guided tours that they do 3 or 4 times a year, and if they started charging admission a lot of people would be very upset. its definitely a good thought though.
i've heard a few different proposals for the space, including a sort of underground shopping area. we'll see though.
the " people who would be very upset" need to seriously do alot of soul searching and deep down thinking. if one is committed to historic preservation and cultural integrity, there is always a price, some how.
I wish you the best of luck! I hope that you consider contacting your local historic society to see what if anything can be done- perhaps a petition or ?-
perhaps you could get involved in a fund raiser... anything, it really starts WITH the community people like yourself who are commited to historic preservation and maintining the integrity of their environment. Just imagine the immense joy you would feel if you actually played a role in the referbrishing of your own local gem!
Cool! I went in there about 20 years ago, before they opened it for tours, and before the building at 25th & Detroit was rennovated. You could actually get up into the building, and it had burned and was way cool. There were still dishes on tables and sheets on beds...
The tunnels go back to Franklin on the west side, but end about 100 feet from the river on the east side. I do a lot of urbex in Cleveland... need a new member? :-)
I like this. In most "abandoned buildings"-videos you hear scary and lonely music. But here the music is playful (don't know a better word in English). So you can see, how nice and interesting (instead of scary and haunted) abandoned sites can be.
oh shit they opened it up now for show wow n they cleaned it up i remember that place was soooooo dirty full of garbge n i kno theres some sort of water area in there is where it's blocked
It does not look very abandon with the guy sitting at the desk writting and the old man with the kid. It looks like its only been abandon for like 2 years.
its been abandoned for a long time now. the only reason you see people is because like i said in the description, they open it twice a year for people to walk around in, and thats pretty much the only way you can ever get in there.
ive been into that one u were at down in colombus and some by my house theres a big one in rocky river i always walk through never went to the end though. Idk i like alot of cleveland writers like digit prae ridl and i can go on and on. yea basically anyone on the redline, downtown or ohio city/tremont area.
It's bizarre how cities would abandon their subway lines even if they use streetcars instead of trains.

When trolleys were abandoned by 1954, these former trackways on the bridge were two narrow for non rail traffic.

I was down there about 15 years ago, and it was all of that- but interesting. There were old tattered street car ad placards strewn about the place.
I was down there because the AT&T has conduit down there, and it had to be inspected.
