Urban Exploring at ISU

[Flag Guy]

That would be both because of liability and security... They used to be used for theft as well as exploration so... I know they dont like to disclose that type of stuff

I'm honestly curious to see a map of the tunnels under campus. Obviously there was a map way back on one of the pages but someone said it wasn't accurate and I'm curious to know.

I will say it's cool going onto the Iowa State Facilities Planning and Maintenance site and looking at some of the building plans.

Also, the PDF I downloaded about Iowa State's involvement in the Manhattan Project is an interesting read.

I missed that, what page is the link on?

I have no clue if its true or not (probably not) but when I lived in Friley my freshman year, it was widely told to me that Friley had the highest suicide rate of any college dorm in the country.

I don't think that is still true. There are not that many suicides on campus and most of them are in MWL and UV. I know that Friley is one of the largest dorms in the US and the only dorm with it's own zip code.

I remember National Geographic did an article on Friley once for the section of the magazine where they focus on a unique zip code. A writer and photographer spent a whole week in Friley for their article. The first day they were there they took pictures of and interviewed my friend and I, who had just parked our motorcycles at the Friley lot and were on our way to work at the maintenance office. That was September 10, 2001. Needless to say we did not get any mention in the article.

No clue if that is true or not, but in my time on campus the only suicide that I ever heard of in a dorm occured in Friley.

I dont know if thats true, but it did happen alot. I think the years I was there some kid jumped out a window after losing at monopoly or something, hit his head on the dumpster below and died.

OK I'm hooked. I drove by the guys house and got his address. I went to the Boone library and got out the county directory. The names of his neighbors to the east and west are listed but his address and the address of the park are not even in the directory. There are several addresses that state"unavailable" next to an address but his address is not even on the list. I also stopped at the chamber and the newspaper to see if anyone had ever heard of "Sun Park" but not one person had even heard of it. I drove back by the house to make sure I wasn't crazy and had to stop in the road to avoid, drumroll, a black kitten. I'm probably cursed now and will fade into oblivion. It reminds me of the movie "The Ring" as to how creepy it really is. I checked the white pages on the internet when I got home and his address doesn't exist. I even found a neighbors address and clicked the "neighbors" button on msn and all of the pthers but him showed up. God I love a good creepy story. I did this sort of thing this summer by going into Cabrini Green in Chicago before they tore it down. That is where they shot the movie "Candyman" and that place is another story to itself.

If you by the DVD Candyman they have a good bonus feature on Cabrini Green. It was a pretty creepy building.

Was the address 1906 195th St Boone, IA???

[CRAZYGREG]

I looked on the assessor page earlier and in the 1900-1999 block of 195th st that is the only house that has a single owner.

Did someone talk about harassment earlier? Holy Crap dude. Drive by if you need to, but going to the library and the chamber? Wow.

This guy is crazy. And creepy. And so is his place. But I'd probably go a little nuts too if random people kept driving by my place and stopping to take pictures, bug me about my, uh, lawn ornaments? Anyways, let's leave this guy alone for a bit. Love the thread, just time to get it back to something different.
