This location was my first explore ever back in 2007 when I saw it on the side of a road after a job and decided to check it out – at that time, it was in much better shape than it is now. The sanctuary had no graffiti, only one small wing of the complex was destroyed, and the ceiling was (mostly) intact, aside from plaster and bits of wood falling on occasion. The decay was bound to happen, but the graffiti on the pillars actually hit me a bit harder considering how long they had gone without being painted on.
The ceiling fell in due to natural circumstances a few weeks back (decay coupled with high winds) and I made sure to get out the day after to get a few shots of the place.
