Why are abandoned buildings so creepy and cool?
I took this pic yesterday; it’s one of many old structures at the defunct military base in Hamilton Field, Novato.
Creepy!

Hi Hafsa,
I know! There is a lot of beauty in old buildings. 🙂
Where is Novato?
Hi Susan,
Northern Marin County, which is 40 minutes north of San Francisco. 🙂
That is so gorgeous. Is it really abandoned and you can go in and out as you wished? I think abandoned buildings are very evocative.

Hi Amy,
There was a broken window in the basement area… I could’ve snuck in if I wanted to but I’m waaay to chicken!
If you love looking at abandoned building pics, check out this site I stumbled upon a few years ago while researching in class for architectural buildings…very cool, and creeppy, it has this mysterious vibe to it: http://www.opacity.us/
Hi Ilona,
Thanks for that link — I really enjoyed it!
All those pics make me really want a wide angle lens, sigh.
I see you are discovering your new town. Check out the Hamilton Cafe. So yummy!

Hi Marisol,
We had brunch there on yesterday. I had the fritatta — it was SO GOOD!
I am totally obsessed with abandoned buildings! In fact just last weekend the hubbie and I were trying to find places (other than the Presidio) to go take photos and were at a loss. Have you heard of the Drawbridge ghost town near Fremont? They now have it blocked so people can’t get to it. Here is link:http://www.ghosttown.info/ca/drawbridge/
I REALLY want to check out an hold abandoned mental hospital or prison, sigh.
Hi Kelly,
Nope, I’ve never heard of that town (and I grew up near that area, too).
I think you gotta head to the East Coast to find old stuff… there doesn’t seem to be a lot around here!
If you ever want to splurge, try the flourless chocolate cake. Their hamburgers are really good too.
Hi Marisol,
That cake sounds like something I’d LOVE! Urgh, my stomach just rumbled, LOL!
Very cool!! I love finding old buildings with interesting details! You have inspired me to take pictures next time. 🙂
