|  | | | Just got back from Kennedy and it was great. Loved how expansive the place is. Pretty busy though, huge soccer meet going on so all the kiddies were wandering over and looking in...most too scared to come in or go far. Shame this one is coming down.

|  | | | I was there today too with a few people. Lots to see, and a lot of darkness. Not camera friendly if you don't have a tripod.

Here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you. |

| | | | Got a trip to Kennedy in today with NeilT and friends. I didn't have a tripod so I was hurting  Was surprised that we didn't run into anyone else there today. In the times that i've gone there i've ran into 3 different groups of people. One notable one was 2 guys, one had a type of pistol (looked like an oversized Glock 17) strapped to his leg. And the other guy had a big machete which he kept behind his back when we first ran into them. They said they were going to be filming a zombie movie for their youtube.
It made us worry quite a bit, ahaha.

1. This picture was pretty much taken in complete darkness. I illuminated the scene using my flashlight, which I moved in various patterns across the image. It was one of the more creative shots I've had to do.

| | | | Truly amazing pictures, I am going to make my way up there next weekend before this beautiful building is gone, I see you wore breathing masks, is that important? is there lots of mold in there or just better safe than sorry.
Thanks again for the amazing pictures

There wasn't any mold that I noticed when I was there a few weeks ago. I think asbestos may be a concern though. I had my respirator with me but I didn't end up wearing it.

I think the pigeon shit could be a concern, and the area near the front door where there's a lot of water damage might have some mold there. If you have one then id say it's better to play it safe.

| | | | Thanks all. KeinLicht was a great resource -- he had been there before so he guided us to some great finds (i.e. 1977 packing slip).
