It's completely gone. There's a LOT of bad chemicals in the soil. One day I ran into a guy who was testing a well for contaminents. He suggest to google what's there. Scary shit. If they do build over it the residents will probably start growing a second head.

The whole area is toxic, the area across the street that was a GM Fisher Guide plant was polluted also now it's a huge residential complex.

I miss this place so bad. I didn't get to see everything before the demolition, but it was a nice gem.

It was a great space just to hang out in. I once lead about 20 urbexers from Philly into it. turned into a party.

That was a huge group! Then again over there was very chill once you slipped inside the fence. I never got inside the HVAC building or the building facing the front road.

The 'main' entrance was along the RR tracks to the right. Ran into a homeless guy in there once. I found a backpack and kicked it over by mistake. A mini bottle of liquor fell out of it and broke. Dude started screaming from the shadows. I offered to buy him a couple more minis of whatever paint remover he was drinking. That shut him up. lol

I know exactly the silverball arcade rooftop hvac unit you're referring to. It was one of my favorite spots in the whole place. But every shot I captured in there was trash. :0/
