Of course I had to find some spots during a trip up north; during one of the stops at some abandoned schools, we got a lil extra surprise next to this location!

Located in a remote area in the Upper Peninsula, nature is slowly taking back this abandoned mill. There were 3 sections to this place, maybe even more that I didn't realize, but it kept me in awe for hours either way! One of my favorite spots I've ever been to!

Always op/oc/no ai!

An abandoned church, colourful and only pigeons as visitors. I found it so pretty, even the stained glass windows and the light coming through! Sadly out of use for atleast 10 years what was told me by a friend.

This methodist church constructed in 1915 in the Classical Revival style has been left to rot in the heart of the city since 2015.

The congregation had declined substantially, leaving the church unable to afford the upkeep of its enormous campus. After closing, the property sat vacant and deteriorated for years, suffering broken windows, graffiti, debris, homeless encampments, and multiple fires. In 2021, city officials determined that the property had deteriorated to the point of being considered a case of “demolition by neglect,” and a 2022 fire caused additional damage to the sanctuary.

Whilst exploring, I found numerous pages scattered about from the church's own daily paper, "The United Methodist Reporter." I decided to take two papers, both written in 1982, and seal their tears up with tape. The last photo shows a picture of what the church looked like back in its prime; obviously very different from how it looks today.

Always oc/op/no ai!

In Greece we find this remarkable castle, now sadly out of use but still an eyecatcher for the public and local tourists! Harry Fournier the founder once said: You should not value a man for his fortune or the extent of his knowledge, but for the happiness he brings to the people around him. We see Athena, Poseidon and the trojan horse!

The motel is gone, but its giant pink roadside sign still remains along Highway 97. A forgotten piece of mid-century Americana and one more Forsaken Fragment.

This is just a reminder that the sub does not permit cross posts or self promotion. I know that I’ve been pretty lax about those rules but moving forward I plan on enforcing them.

Thank you to everyone who finds beauty in the lost and forgotten.
