I have to admit, I have a really strange fascination with abandoned buildings and spaces. There was a period when I would spend hours at a time just looking through images and researching different ghost towns and abandoned institutions. It’s incredible how much of a story the objects left behind can tell about not only the people who lived there, but a strange sense of how they left as well.

So it’s no surprise that I totally love Nathan Kensingers blog of images, where he goes around New York and finds all the lost and forgotten gems of the city. I especially love his post about under the boardwalk in Coney Island, it’s some pretty intense stuff.

Do yourself a favour and check out some of his photographs and read some of his stories.
