Rocky31186 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 A group of us are looking for some old run down buildings, sweet graffiti, etc. Been searching on google for a while and haven't came up with too much. I did find that nelsonville has a water treatment plant that's run down. But I read it's been torn down. http://www.forgottenoh.com/abandoned.html I did not know the big "grain elevator" off 70 and Hamilton was abandoned. If the ladder would hold me I would climb to the top. Would make sweet shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 that one guy was crazy, crip walking between our cars........... Well, Rocky you are like 10feet tall so you should be fine ^^ :lolguy: Yeah, I need to hire Rocky and a few others here to be my bodyguard on shoots in rough areas. The times I have gone out with a few friends we all had our CCW's with us but thankfully never had any scarey situations. One shoots while the other two are on the look out in hopes to not have to.

ross Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Kenny rd just south of Woody Hayes Dr, look east. There is a large wall setback a few hundred yards from the road covered in graffiti. There is a parking lot that is right beside this wall. http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=qp00k482dm2z&lvl=19.65&dir=89.38&sty=b&where1=40.000699%2C%20-83.031991&form=LMLTCC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Also, Grant ave just south of 11th has a ton of graffiti along the railroad. Might be an okay location for some daytime photos. http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=qnyvp482hbmc&lvl=18.31&dir=88.87&sty=b&form=LMLTCC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky31186 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 How you think I feel!?? Im a GIRL.. I would not be happy if my wife was downtown by herself. Lol. The first time I did night photos downtown I was by myself at 12:30 am. Lots of trash pickers and crazy people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 The first link that I posted has been repainted now. Just drove by there on lunch. Probably part of the graffiti cleanup that the city is implementing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Like 8-10yrs ago there used to be some awesome stuff on the walls if you get off the goodale exit off 670 and turn left. Its was down by the railroad tracks. A few years ago the city painted over all of it, but I am not sure if any more pieces have gone up since then or not. Another great and hard to get to place was this old water tower in bexley. You can see it off 670 as you come around the bend. If I recall correctly, me and my friends had to park at this little park off 5th, walk through the woods, up a big hill, etc and get into it. Some nasty work in there. Some of it was fresh too. Paint still tacky. Again, this was like 9 or so years ago so I don't even know if that structure is still up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 In the area right around spaghetti warehouse. Had to drive up a gravel road up near the RR tracks. Don't know if it was legal or not, but got some neat shots of the LGT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02549.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02550.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02554.jpg The tracks to the right of me separate me from the spaghetti warehouse. In the last shot the car is pointed in the leaving direction to head down the hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Also over in Worthington off 161/Dublin Granville just West of Jack Maxton is the old train museum with some neat old trains sitting outside on tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
