damn i just found out about this spot and now i'll never get to skate it! woulda been a trip from NY but worth it. and now flushing meadows (the globe) is gone. gonna be filled with water all the time soon. construction already started.:(

[Tjgaskill]

The thing about Flushing doesn't sound right....with the way the economy is I doubt they would do that..unless the fairs or whatever they used to do there are starting up again.

[focantee]

i was suppose to go there last weekend to get a hammer but then i heard about this...

[Tjgaskill]

oh wow you left a hammer in there?

[Hallamfoebell]

@delise720 Well why have security there when its just buildings now? Who is going to rebuild it? Why have security there anyway? Nothing there except buildings. If they really wanted to get rid of it they would tear the whole thing DOWN! So no skateboarders homeless Graffatii artists could do anything with it. I mean if the great wall is still there then sell it too someone or parts of it.

[jewmancrazy]

who the hell pays for the security?

[SpeakMyMind500]

[ilovelucy2109]

[Hallamfoebell]

@LurkNone What the heck is 13? a triads?

[delise720]

@Hallamfoebell That's a reason trash it? Because someone else can't/won't take care of it?

[Hallamfoebell]

@NottaVictim Well what would you do? Things are abandoned all the time and goverments dont clean it up or anything it just sits there
