  • Really amazing place, if you like urban exploration I suggest checking it out. The fence in the front of the building is flimsy at best, and you can just squeeze in. The entrance is located directly behind the southbound train platform. I had a picknick on one of the terraces facing the river, it was very clean and nice. The building itself is in very good condition all things considered. I don't recommend playing on the catwalks as they are rusted through, but there are some amazing treasures to be seen in that building.
