We Had No Idea How Dangerous The GRAFFITI PIER really was!

#explore #abandoned #adventure #philadelphia

For this week’s special Tuesday video release we explored the iconic graffiti pier in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (aka Pier 18).

This place was once thought to be a great place to explore if you enjoy urban exploration and urban art, however, we recently discovered that that is not the case. This place was much more dangerous and it notable than we ever realized!

In a past life, Pier 18 was where the Reading Company’s trains unloaded coal into ships bound for ports all over the world. It was part of the Port Richmond rail yard, which was taken over by Conrail in 1976 after the coal industry declined.

Graffiti Pier has sat completely abandoned for over 3 decades after closing for good in 1993.
