Been meaning to check this place out for months since it was first done by Northern Exposure. Its a total time capsule, the circa 1970s office equipment and decor are in exceptionally untouched/unchaved condition.

The front gate.

IBM mainframe computer and telephone switch - really old gear this and probably not that old when this place closed.
I poped open the drive eject and amazingly there was a big 8inch floppy disk still in there - popped it back in as I'm all out of 8inch floppy drives to read it.

The pure 70s style reception is dominated by this "sculpture" on the stairs

Its a great site, and thanks again to Northern Exposure for finding this originally.
