AbandonedNYC
Abandoned places and forgotten history from across the five boroughs.
Feel free to contact me at will@abandonednyc.com with any inquiries, or find me on Facebook.
(I’ll automatically add you to my mailing list, which I use very rarely for major news and updates. Let me know if you’d rather not be included.)
I get a lot of questions about using locations featured on AbandonedNYC for video and photo shoots. Please note that I am not affiliated with any of these sites, and I’m usually not much help if you are looking for permits.

When was the picture of the LIRR Substation #2 taken? http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8010/7192110978_118d7acf90_b.jpg
Was this taken from the SnedIker Avenue side?

I also am fascinated by decaying small town america and NYC…if you ever would like a photographer buddy on one of your expeditions, i’d be very interested. This fall, my goal is to photograph the decaying catskill resorts that my parents used to take us too growing up.

Posted by danny | 10-16-12., 4:24 pmDo you know if the Bayley Seton Nurse’s Residence is still standing? If so, is it guarded by security? I’d really like to go explore/photograph it myself.

Posted by omar | 12-5-12., 3:01 pmHello, I too am interested in photographing and exploring abandoned places in NYC and small towns in the Poconos. I find them telling of the scars we leave upon the land and occasionally the rebirth of nature when it reclaims the area. Would you like to explore these together?
Posted by manhattandad | 1-4-13., 9:36 amHi Will, I am making a film with a setting of an abandoned warehouse. I would like to use some of your photos for our Kickstarter video. Would love to know how much you would charge for use of your photos. Can you email me?
Thanks!
