On Wednesday I was down in Philadelphia recruiting for Phillyist (if you are interested, send me an email!) Before the meetup, I had a couple of hours to explore around town. Of course, the first place I went was the hyper-spooky Eastern State prison over on the Northwest side of town. Lots of great picture taking in the giant, castle-like complex- if you are ever in Philly, I highly recommend it.

These are great shots. There's nothing quite like an abandoned building. Nice element of creepiness in these.

Wow. I assumed these were the abandoned prison that the R7 passes, but that's on the entirely opposite side of town. Philly certainly doesn't lack for abandoned prisons.
