Bombay Beach is surely one of the most interesting towns I have ever visited. The town is situated on the Salton Sea, 4 miles west-southwest of Frink in Southern California’s Sonoran Desert. The entire area is full of oddly calming post-apocalyptic views and various interesting projects left behind by artists, utilizing vacant spaces for creation in numerous expressive ways.

Come September 1953, the school would open its doors for the very first time as a Saint John High School – opened by Reverend Joseph Feicht. Sadly, it was not long before the building would be destroyed by a fire on November 5, 1953.

Situated on 339 acres just east of the Allegheny National Forest, the Kinzua Bridge State Park is surely a unique sight to see. The park was even chosen by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources as one of the “25 Must-See Pennsylvania State Parks.” I mean, it’s not incredibly often that you get to wander ruins of this

Prior to abandonment, the City Methodist Church of Gary, Indiana was once the largest Methodist church in the Midwest. This now dilapidated church was shut down in 1975, after only 50 years in service.

Between the early 1970s and mid-1980s, business was booming for Lake Dolores as visitors flocked from all over to enjoy a vacation in the desert.
