I would be careful and definitely don't be there after dark.

A fine line it is between paranoid and cautios. The best access to Twr. 55, and as far as I know, you're not trespassing here, is on the southwest corner of the junction, a block north of Vickery Rd. When you go to Twr. 55, you might as well check out the old T and P station, too. It's pretty as hell and it's good to see that they're rehabbing the top floor, too. It's just going to be condos for yuppies, but it's still a pretty building. It's about two blocks west of Tower 55. Check out the metal "T and P" logos on the front doors, too, little shiny things that measure about an inch across. Like I said, it is a beautiful building.

There's a reason for all that concertina wire around his and the adjacent buildings. Reply Edit Join our Community! Our community is FREE to join.
