Urban Explorers, Discovery Channel, 6/27-7/1, Discovery Channel

Sophomore year of college, Alex and I lived in a suite with 5 other guys. Great times. This was Fall '98-Spring '99. Ruggles was my favorite dorm at Columbia. Steve, one of the gentlemen from that suite is on a tv show airing next week on the Discovery Channel.

Steve describes it as: "a one-hour program in which I and three other people visit and talk about interesting, forgotten, historic and inaccessible sites in various cities (Such as an old factory, an abandoned asylum, a gold mine, a sewer tunnel, a grain silo, a missile silo, an old brewery, etc.) You'll also see some spectacular urban climbing as well as bits of historical footage that will teach you fascinating tidbits about Al Capone, the grain trade across the Great Lakes, and the historical illegality of bowling."

The schedule for "Urban Explorers" is:

Monday Jun 27 2005 @ 05:00 PM-- Milwaukee
Tuesday June 28 2005 @ 05:00 PM-- Chicago
Wednesday June 29 2005 @ 05:00 PM-- Buffalo
Thursday June 30 2005 @ 05:00 PM-- Pittsburgh
Friday July 1 2005 @ 05:00 PM-- Denver

Tivo it!

Steve's website, all about urban exploration, is www.undercity.org.

If I ever make it out to LA, I'm calling you up so you can show me where to eat. Reading your posts is like watching the Sopranos, it always makes me hungry.
