PS II - September 2015

[prettypeculiar]

This location was on my to-do-list for a while so we gave it a go.

My exploring partner had already been there before so it was smooth and easy to enter because he knew the directions.

Just when we were finished, we started hearing voices from outside.

we thought it was security and that they would disappear soon enough.

But the voices kept multiplying, and so did the noise.

Before we knew, there were footsteps and loud bangs on the roof right above us.

Apparently, they are starting to demolish the building, so removing drainpipes and rooftiles is a splendid job to do after 6.30 pm. For a moment I even feared that a wrecking ball (without Miley) would swing in!

So we decided it would be safer to wait inside the building untill the darkness came, instead of spending 2.5 hours in a police station.

It became just a wee bit more exciting when a roof worker clearly showed his explorer-skills by entering the building through a hole in the roof and started sneaking around a bit. he missed us by 3 metres...

but apart from all this, it is still by far one of the most beautiful locations I've been able to explore so far.

It such a shame to hear that this place is to be demolished as looks interesting and a great control room.

Im glad to hear that there was no wrecking ball action on your visit

A very nice place. Sadly, the demolition. But you were lucky you could even see it before.
