I love that place! Great pics! I want to go back there so bad. Do they still offer the optional overnight visit? I know they used to do it a few years ago.

No guided tour. They have an audio tour which I declined and just walk around. Overnight stay would be sweet

They dont allow kids under 10 yrs because there is lead paint. We were unable to tour it because we had our 4yr old daughter with us.

Yep, the first one they did was before they had the show. I met them at a seminar they did in south jersey back in like '03 or '04 and they were talking about Eastern State.

Looks like something straight out of your worst nightmare! I can just see Freddie Kruger jumping out from behind one of thos doors. You couldn't pay me enough to spend a nite there ALONE in one of those cells  . Just imagine what it must have been like when it was a working prison. What is the history of that place?

Depends on how many cars show up. Parking is pretty tight around there and that parking lot they have fills up pretty quick!

99.9999214589% never-ever. I guess I need to leave a minute opening. But NJ only is part of the monthly meet criteria

What if we rent a helicopter and lower ourselves into the prison, that way we don't have to touch Pennsyltucky ground?

They have a pretty big parking lot next to it. I'm using a rebel xti with a sigma 18-250 lens. Non of them photos are edited which Im proud of I've been getting alot better but need more practice with the new lens. I know alot of my pics are dark but I like them like that adds to the natraul light of the place
