Atlanta Prison - Abandoned Place

Saturday, 21 June 2008

There's an abandoned prison farm in SE Atlanta, hidden in the woods and completely covered by kudzu.
Buildings are so overgrown that they are deeply hidden in trees.
According to Atlanta's "History of the Dept of Corrections" page, the prison farm was operated from 1945 to 1995.
There are rumors of the 290 acres being converted into a park soon. Increased patrols are also occurring so don't park next to the road.

That's amazing.. and I'm incredibly jealous. I love abandoned places. Relics
of the past, like the old computer, are my fave. The GED sign is neat too.

My uncle syrus went there. He was a pie eating crack head Tennessee. They locked
him up for stealing bandgers from the local badger farm. Rumors were he was
using the badgers for the pies and then selling the pies back to the towns folk.
