Old Abandoned Burned House in Pasco County

Pristine Abandoned Hotel In Florida

#urbex #abandoned #decay #abandonedplaces #urbexphotography #urbexworld #lostplaces #urbanexploration #photography #decay

Today we are exploring an untouched 95-year-old hotel that has been my the oldest explore to date.

During the 1920s, Florida experienced a land boom, a period in which tourism was on the rise, and many Mediterranean Revival style hotels were built.
Construction on this hotel started in 1925

The hotel featured six floors of guest rooms, an observation tower, and a series of patios and arcades through an abundance of tropical plants.

The hotel opened in January 1927 with a six-course dinner to celebrate, which attracted over 250 guests. Unfortunately, this was the hotel’s high point as it was only able to stay open for a few years during the Great Depression.

The hotel reopened in 1953 after much-needed updating and remodeling and operated until 1982 after it was sold off to investors that unfortunately went bankrupt and couldn’t finish reopening the hotel.

Abandoned Florida Asylum Hospital Part One

#urbex #abandoned #decay #abandonedplaces #urbexphotography #urbexworld #lostplaces #urbanexploration #photography #decay
Today we are exploring an Abandoned Asylum Hospital In Florida. This complex use to be an army base and a juvenile detention center.

As some of you might know, I’m urban exploration in some locations are extremely difficult and sometimes impossible. You never know what you’re going to find and I’m some cases you might be late and the structure has been demolished. I’m other cases security has been tightened due to vagrants and Vandals. Destruction of these historic landmarks is not okay. History is unfortunately being Erased daily. We want to respect the building and locations. Don’t break and enter, don’t take anything but photos, and leave nothing but footprints.

I started this hobby as a photographer and the YouTube channel was started to possibly fund my adventures at some point. After seeing the beautiful wonders of our past. The amazing craftsmanship. The artwork created. As an artist, I sympathize with those that spent time crafting the building we inhabit daily. The next time you’re in an old building, take a moment to acknowledge the time and skill someone put into it.

Urban Exploring - Abandoned Florida

Urban exploring trip with my wife and some friends. I brought along my Canon 60D but decided to shoot some POV footage with my Gopro.

This Plant was shut down about 15 years ago and nature has almost completely taken over. It was hard for even the Gopro to capture how massive it is. The highest point was about 12 stories high but we climbed about 8, that was scary enough.

Walking through abandoned gardens

The collapse of the Soviet Union was marked by the cessation of the supply of irrigated private land with water. People threw their land, where now you can find a lot of fruit trees. Now all these riches have no owners.

Florida’s Upper Tampa Bay Park & Nature Center - My Escape From Reality

Upper Tampa Bay Park of Florida is a great place to escape any day, but especially now during the epidemic of the Coronavirus. It’s also one of my favorite and best places to launch a canoe or kayak on Tampa Bay. I can’t think of anywhere else I would rather be then away from the crowds and out on a beautiful nature trek. I’ve never been the indoor type! Please join me in my peaceful journey exploring the boardwalks, trails, and nature center is this beautiful Hillsborough County Park.
