Urban exploration - Mezzanine Vault

[Forresn]

Hey guys, check this out.

I went on a trip to an abandoned bank vault and came back with some crazy fucking footage.

The vault is located in the basement of a highrise, and I end up exploring the abandoned mezzanine which is only accessible through the basement.

The Mezzanine and the Basement are part of the old bank which is now historic and cannot be destroyed, but 7 stories of offices have been built over it.

The bank was built in the 1920s, and the only way in is through a locked gate.



Here is a picture of the weird shit on the Mezzanine, and a video of the whole thing.

I sneaked in my camera pen and tazer flash light (reports of attacks and murders).

That's pretty cool. I love exploring different buildings. Where was this at?

That's pretty cool. I love exploring different buildings. Where was this at?

It is in a very sensitive area, so unfortunately I cannot say.

What I can say however is that it is on this historical registry, and only 2 people have the key.




These paintings are found on the Mezzanine.

The building has 7 floors, however the Mezzanine was built during the original construction in 1919, and their for is not counted in the total number of floors.

The floor is accessible through the basement, though an elevator shaft can be seen. It has long been out of service.

From what I know of the paintings they depict magical markings originating from South America.

Here is the next video in the series that explores the numerous crawl and void spaces left in the building, a result of multiple major expansions over 90 years.

In this video I explore that small door that I begin to climb into on the Mezzanine.

It was about a 2 story drop, I came back about 3 times to film the architecture that was built over, unfortunately the new construction left it here in this dark and unseen room.

It can be seen that the entire wall was painted gold, but painted over..
