<div class="IPBDescription">just stumbled across this.</div> This site has a lot of pictures of dark creepy abandoned industrial architecture. Gave me some inspiration, thought I'd share.

    One of my friends took photos of various industrial and sewerage/drainage areas around Sydney, where we live.

    I've been to a few locations shown there and am using them as inspiration for my own map.
