subways!

I have a special love of abandoned/disused subway stations, as they combine two things I love: subways and things that used to be Very Interesting and have now fallen into disrepair. Here are a few links of picture sets on this topic.

Paris stations

Abandonded stations from around the world - and in at least one case, a whole system.

London tube stations - I couldn't possibly pick just one to highlight!

water, college, gone

12 unusual lakes. by which i mean ones that boil, and ones that nobody's ever seen.

Meet the man with 29 college degrees.

Very cool things that no longer exist.. but once pretty much defined their neighborhoods. I'd go see most of these.

light bulb, mcdonald's mansion, ginormous dog

At Clifton's Cafeteria, someone left a light on. For 77 years. During renovations of the Broadway eatery, a neon lamp that was switched on during the Great Depression is found behind a partition. The owner estimates it's generated more than $17,000 in electric bills.


The most attractive McDonald's in the US?



The biggest dog in the world, George!
