Ok but let me check first! I was telling a friend about it and she said “the place became a homeless camp and the sheriff’s office came in one day like 2 years ago and closed it down. It was on the news, how did you miss it.” I’m driving out there tomorrow. I hadn’t thought about this place in a while but now I’m sad if this actually happened.

Eh it happens. I don't know if you ever went to the prison farm in Atlanta but basically same thing. Rad art turns into a lawless place, cops and city shut it down, only film crews allowed in. Boo.

You should check out freak alley in Boise. It's pretty amazing

First place I thought of. You get a tourist attraction out of it and everybody wins.
