Perhaps not entirely related to what I am researching, but still an interesting website that documents people across the country and internationally who explore abandoned and off-limit sites, like mental hospitals, underground tunnels, rooftops, etc. Certainly there is a counter culture of people who value and are drawn to the abandoned spaces tucked deep within our cities.http://www.infiltration.org/abandoned-whitby.html

This reminds me of the book "Mole People" by Jennifer Toth. It's about the people who live in the New York City subway tunnels. I have it if you're interested in borrowing it..
