Well, no. Down in the alley, there was a window into a well-lit showroom and a sign, but facing the 4 lane highway, there was just an empty parking lot and a huge shuttered-up building with unlit signage.

The one deserted west Baltimore rowhouse that I’ve ever been in (for a Habitat for Humanity volunteer gig with my church group) had a dirty mattress in it with magazine pictures of r&b singers tacked to the wall. The floor was strewn with broken glass, feces, the occasional condom and lots and lots and lots of hypodermic needles.

Ranks Mill, Limerick. They tried to topple it with dynamite a few years back but weren't successful.
