She saw the grand station at its finest and also seen the business fall to the way said. We left but we have lots of friends in the middle of all that. Its illegal to go in to the station its closed down, only for some special events ...art showings, moving making, transformers one, the island. but is the best view for the fire works,lol. Right across from the station is 17 street and an epic old church that we use to go to. they are holding the front on the poverty and try to make a difference.. the park right across is a homeless shelter and a hotel that is a housing complex for people that just came out of jai. its rough complete school have been turn down and nothing g=has been replaced except the baseball stadiumAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683676333147009832.post-76037435455554135232011-03-24T05:48:47.768-05:002011-03-24T05:48:47.768-05:00Most interesting review I've read of a collaps...Most interesting review I've read of a collapsing city, its people and infrastructure.

Really love your photos and the final statement. The boarded up houses look so dilapidated yet colourful with the signs all over them, and that station looks beyond epic. I really would love to go there, but I dont think I would last 10 minutes! Please be careful (I sound like a parent haha).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683676333147009832.post-54180337667423729152010-11-16T18:36:31.928-05:002010-11-16T18:36:31.928-05:00What an interesting city. in such a state of decay...What an interesting city. in such a state of decay and highlighting exactly what happens when our system fails.

If it has a metro system he takes it to the furthest points east and west (or north and south) and spends time at each place.. when he did that in London he got arrested in east london under laws banning photographers from taking photos of stations! Anyway.. have fun!.. Matt T (soas)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02300137910843104753noreply@blogger.com
