The Abandoned-Place Planning Tool Most Coffee-Table Books Never Become.

Sites plotted with access notes

Most abandoned-place guides tell you what happened, but leave out the details that matter when you are actually planning a route: what still exists, whether public access is realistic, and whether a detour is worth your time.

This guide puts the history next to the practical details, then adds a state index, an access-status index, a plotted US map, and a printable checklist so it works as a road-trip tool as well as a read.
