Born , brought up in Burrillville and went often.. Rustic Drive in also..Joyland roller skating rink twice a month..Carrolls hamburgers.. R.I Reds at the Aud..Gaggers at Onlyville.. Mezza Luna pizza.. AH , Memories..

My childhood was spent here. Friday night concerts were great. My fiance (former) and I took his kids here in 1996. They loved it as much as we did.

Great video, great memories!

I loved Rocky Point!

You did see anybody else in the abandoned trainstation?!

Great videos and editing and narration, I’m was raised in Easton ma., I like local New England history and most of all trains ! Glad I came soon you’re site!

I went there with my sixth grade class for a field trip.

I love your content so much. Also, the "Yes trespassing" stickers are sick, and I can't wait to receive mine!

Fun fact: I believe the state of New Hampshire gives landowners a tax break for easements/right of way/allowing people on their property. Wish other states would do something similar to encourage people to allow more explorers!

Great video as always man!

First time watcher, and I enjoyed this video. I urbex myself and do watch a lot of YT channels that showcase this activity. Increasingly though, I do wonder if such channels inadvertently add to the issue of places getting looted or trashed? I've seen it a few times when explorers find and document a beautiful location, only to go back to see that items have been stolen etc. Not saying they're responsible, but it is a discussion worth having I feel. Anyway, I always urbex by this code: take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints. Subbed.

I enjoy all your videos

This is amazing work on Cedar Hill Yard -- where as a teen I used to love watching the hump in operation in the 60's. Well conceived, written and photographed. One of the best I have seen. Bravo guys.

I was also born and raised in Rhode Island and never knew about this. Very interesting bit of history!

Can you look into doing a video on Dutch island in Narragansett bay? Really interesting history and lots of ruins

That’s like 225k in today’s money. Not near enough but not like 22k

Lord that’s horrible

I grew up going to my grandparents cottage in West.Warrick and I went to Rocky Point several times every summer with family . Rhode Island red clam chowder and clam fritters where the best there . The wildcat coaster was the scariest ride by far , I remember one year the ride was closed because cars kept falling off the tracks. Great times & great memories

Flew out of here in the mid 70's on a P-3 Orion to Brunswick NAS in Maine

I remember going to Rocky Point to see Nickelodeon GUTS Live. I LOVED that show. My sister and I got called up on stage and got to do a challenge. I remember meeting Mike O’Malley and him singing my wristband

Thumb up if you got to see the Ladd School before it was torn down. That had to have been the coolest urbex spot in all of RI.

Second thumbs up for the Santa Cruz hoodie :) from a fellow Rhody. Yes Trespassing!

Which video did they ask you to take down?

Easton Cement Factory across from Dog Track in Taunton. Enter from left wood line going through cement tunnels and a maze like structure to get to main entrance. Climb up and get a sick view! The top of the building is best on the rear as it has shade and allows time on target. You can get caught if in the front but the security guard is not willing to climb stairs in the dark to get a person to leave.

I'm instantly in love with this channel. I've been exploring for over 2 decades. I love the "welcome mat" comment about the trespassing signs. I feel the same way. But I couldn't agree more about getting permission when you can. It takes all the stress off, and the production is way better.

You will get in the superman building one of these days

Amazing video. I miss Rocky Point so much. I want clam cakes now. Thanks for the great retrospective.

YOU DO EXCELLENT WORK AND I REALLY APPRECIATE IT..KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND THANK YOU

I genuinely thought this could be clickbait based on the title lol I appreciate this channel so much as content honoring and documenting the historical sites that we still have and I relate to your love for the MA drive-in so much. Your Westborough State Hospital footage had me thinking about now demolished state schools in the area. The Paul A. Dever school almost 20 years ago got me into urbex. Would love to see what footage you have of any of those places.

Great points, Jason. From watching you and post 10 it seems like the northeast is a really great place to be with a large quantity of abandoned spots. Consult a local lawyer on your city/county/states trespassing laws. Some states have vastly different requirments for a property to be considered secure than others. having an intact locked fence, with NT signs only so many feet apart, etc etc. knowing these things can be the differences from a cop telling you to move along without getting of his patrol car vs cooling your heels in jail for 5 hours waiting toi plead your case to a judge. Check deeds and records. sometime property owners have died and the heirs/probate havent done a good job or gotten around to trasnferring the deed. Dead people usually cant support a Trespassing charge against you. depends on your state, check local law. also look for forbidden properties abutting easy access. this could be a road or public land or something that if you hear a vehicle coming you can take 2 hops back to and be out of prosecutions way. check your states statute of limitations and be smart. CYA and dont brag online about being someplace you're not supposed for a couple of months or years, depending. lastly be a good human, if youve been denied access to a place and you go anyway and see tons of vandalism and signs of high use, the property owner is frustrated with people costing them time and money. go away and go someplace else. you might not understand why an owner is denying you access, show some compassion.

I believe the superman building is being renovated for apartments by High Rock Investments, probably why they won't let you in?

Hey Jason, love the videos. I actually live the town over from Woonsocket, and visited your old school because of the documentary. I would reccomend the Medfield State Hospital to check out. It's public access, and still has all the buildings.

That was my old middle school back in day I wish go back inside see my old class room

Great topic! I've found that whether it's OK for me to be someplace, passing public / nosy neighbors may have their own judgement to the contrary. In my part of Maine, much of the population leaves certain areas for the winter and leaves large area for me to explore alone. I drive a white work van, wear some LL Bean clothes and look like an engineer or surveyor with my tripod and pelican case or toolbag I use for a camera bag. If I look like I belong, aren't dressed like a hoodlum, and am respectful and professional, then I am welcome or ignored.

Whether or not there were tapping sounds heard from the sunken sub- they were the enemy and at 130 foot depth could have escaped from a hatch, if one was still operable. If not, none of our equipment could have saved them. War is hell!

Thanks for all you do Jason. Time is fleeting and the only remains of these places are in the videos and history that you have documented. I know it is just a hobby for fun but wow what a hobby. We are indebted big time to you.

Woah! Love this new format video! Cool to learn the background and behind the scenes and the new camera looks great!

Very interesting vid. I like the way you explained the types of trespassing. It unexpectedly tugged at my heartstrings when you were reviewing how these abandoned places are being demolished. Thanks so much for documenting all of them and please continue!

A lot of fond memories made for me at Rocky Point from learning how to swim; my first roller coaster; getting season pass & spending almost every other day there; riding in on a boat & docking there for the day; my first date; my first concert; watching the firework shows. Heck I even managed to break my leg there. I do miss the place and live far far away. No idea it’s now a State Park. Next time in area I’ll go to reminisce

slowwww news day

I love your videos. I’m an explorer who loves to check out places I call vanishing New England. In Rhode Island, one of my faves are the abandoned buildings on Gould Island. It’s like everyone just left their work and never returned. There’s an old factory that’s been taken over by twisted vines and looks out over the bay like an enchanted gothic castle. They used to launch torpedoes for testing in the Bay.

Very well said! I agree that abandoned locations like these should be preserved and documented; they are inherently rich pieces of our culture, after all! I wish some of the more neglectful property owners realized just how important the structures they own are!

I'm a photographer from MA and I've actually been to the abandoned drive in you highlighted in the video! It was such a cool spot! My friend and I did a photoshoot there years ago! I am sad to learn that it no longer exists. But happy to have gotten the chance to shoot there before it was! Keep up the awesome work man, your videos are inspirational!

How many bandos have you bandoed

Did you ever go, to the small, hunted town in CT ??

Good morning all. I never had the chance to visit Rocky Point by myself or with my family and/or friends, but it looks like it was a great place to visit. I’m originally from Upstate NY, & my mom, dad, & I visited places like Santa’s Workshop, Frontier Town, The Catskill Game Farm, & of course The Great Escape, formerly called Storytown. It’s now a Six Flags park, I think. And Riverside in Massachusetts, which is still in operation as a Six Flags park. It looks like Rocky Park was a fun place to go to, & I’m sure a lot of Rhode Islanders miss it. Hopefully another park will take its place in RI soon. Well, I hope you all have a safe & blessed day. Go Yankees!

Mr Jason you are the Hidden Jewel of Rhode Island never stop Putting YT videos out you do A+ Quality work 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

A nice take on the hobby, Jason! I take things like this very seriously, in fact it's the reason I named my own urbex/abandoned series "Authorized Personnel." Taking inspiration from The Proper People, something I pride myself on is that it's most often possible (with a little bit of background work) to gain appropriate permissions to explore and document the sorts of places that are worthwhile for such a thing. Similar to you, my own examples are my abandoned middle school and the Ann & Hope department store in Warwick, among others. Keep up the good work!
