My school in Walnut Park, kindergarten through 5th grade, a gazillion memories when watching your videos, can’t thank you enough for these!!!

Old buildings look much more derelict when the roof is visible. Sad that these treasures from the past are not maintained and re-purposed.

[@jimlwolfe-empty-midwest]

I agree - so many amazing places just left to fall apart.

Great footage- great view.

[@jimlwolfe-empty-midwest]

Thanks, I like your videos as well!!

to think those schools once had hundreds of kids in them daily the neighborhoods were thriving with jobs and family's now just a distant memory

[@jimlwolfe-empty-midwest]

Yes, I have filmed about 16 schools so far, most in North county and the city, BUT I have a list of 14 more empty schools to film, it's truly crazy to think about, 30 plus empty abandoned schools in the area.

This is what happens when most of the good people move away and take the good jobs with them. What "community" that remains cannot defend itself from the bad elements.

The roofs look that way because copper thiefs get up there and take the copper flashing and any thing else made of copper and the elements get in and then does damage to the buildings. Sad to see them that way.
