Exploring an Abandoned Juvenile Detention Center in Detroit

[@lamronaffiliation1995]

I loved to explore the abandoned buildings in detroit, infact i have been to many that you have uploaded videos of. I left for the army and always look forward to new uploads and maybe some new places to see myself when i get home. Keep up the good work!

[@DetroitEXP]

I really do appreciate that. I'm glad you enjoy, thanks for commenting

[@Piecemaker1623]

Gavin Rice thank you for your service to our country. ❤️❤️❤️

9:24 That's crazy, how often do you see a totally frozen joystick?

[@DetroitEXP]

Very rare. It was really odd to me

[@agfan1]

I just found, subscribed and love your channel. I work in a juvenile detention center here in Houston and my heart skipped a beat as you did your walkthrough. I was watching in the facility where I work and kept looking for similarities. 😳😳 Keep them coming Sir

[@dennistitek2980]

This is the old Wayne county youth center on e.Forrest

[@DetroitEXP]

It's extremely hard to get in, it's attached to a building that's active and there are police that work in the other building.

[@wallykorona7713]

I would love to go with you guys some time. I have always wanted to do this but can’t find someone to come with me

[@jasondunn7030]

Dude, I'm down to explore.

[@thesonhaslife]

Love your videos ....can you try and do one of an abandoned church ?

[@DetroitEXP]

If you see my videos, I have an entire playlist of abandoned churches

[@brittanyharris5294]

Where is this?

[@regalt1987]

Maxi?

[@regalt1987]

Obviously not Maxey... saw the proximity from the Ren Cen

[@scottrobertson297]

Downtown detroit, had the privilege of doing time here

[@jackbnimble7517]

I think thats lincoln hall

[@darryljones6933]

Wayne county juvenile detention center off of I-75 across from the Diggs projects

[@joeyferullo8000]

How could I find the name of this place? I tried and tried googling it but no luck the only thing I fine is Camp Sauble.

[@undergroundmafiaterryjames6281]

It's in Forest St just north of the 10 freeway.

[@KeithSeeman]

What camera do you use?

[@DetroitEXP]

Canon 80D, for this video it was with an 11-14 f2.8

[@choppaboy3138]

Sad everytime I’d go, there would be workers or the way in was closed up again

[@DetroitEXP]

Yeah it's definitely a good one.

[@numbnutz9398]

There may have been some activity in part of this facility in 2014 but I can't believe this much decay happened in 4 years. Trees growing in the activity yard (playground?) suggest much longer since any young offenders spend anytime here. Weird that no graffiti or vandalism has happened. Also weird is how few subs you have. You deserve waaaay more. Great vid as always.

[@DetroitEXP]

Thank you, really appreciate that. Fortunately not many of the local taggers have gotten word of this location yet. So crazy how much has happened so fast. It's insane what sort of damage nature can do.

[@numbnutz9398]

@@DetroitEXP it is amazing what happens to an unheated building . I live in Winnipeg and any abandoned home is pretty much destroyed after few seasons.

[@DetroitEXP]

@@numbnutz9398 I would love to take a trip up to Canada sometime, I see a lot of beautiful abandoned stuff up there.

[@numbnutz9398]

@@DetroitEXP Well you pretty much could just walk over the bridge! Just head north😁 It would be nice to see you expand your exploring.

[@DetroitEXP]

It would definitely be a refreshing experience to see some new stuff

[@n.b.0212]

1333 E. Forest?

[@DetroitEXP]

This sounds about right.

[@maiajones5923]

Have the police ever caught you guys.

[@jackvictoria5254]

My brother spend 1 year in there and I did for 2 months oof

[@neok5050]

I was there looks just like I remembered it shower wouldn't drain you'd b in there with water past your ankles

[@DetroitEXP]

You stayed inside it when it was open?

[@neok5050]

Yes . Classroom just how irememberedit and the rooms.they had speakers inrooms they'd wake u by playing the radio. One side was girls one was boys

[@neok5050]

There also another location a big huge house that I was moved to from there not sure where that was? In Detroit as well

[@Elena_48A]

👍👍👍👍

[@millionairescloset2310]

Creepy

[@DetroitEXP]

Yes the creepy thing was the one way in, one way out. It is a jail, not very hard to break out of if we needed to.

[@obsoleteoptics]

Good n grimy n no graffiti

[@DetroitEXP]

That's what we like to see

[@regalt1987]

@@DetroitEXP Amen... I dont think many know about this place... Also if I remember correctly there are always cars around during the day during the week. Driven by it a hundred times, but never gone in... Might have to know

[@plaguex1]

Would love to check this out and do done drone shots of it

[@DetroitEXP]

@@plaguex1 We actually got some drone shots for this. It will be featured in this documentary style video I've been working on for quite some time.

[@bettysue6793]

This is maxie for boys they were abusing boys here that why they closed.

[@DetroitEXP]

Interesting, I'll have to do more research on the location

[@scottrobertson297]

No it's not maxi

[@jackbnimble7517]

Maxey is still in use im pretty sure, its a prison

[@jackbnimble7517]

[@undergroundmafiaterryjames6281]

It's on Forest St just north of the 10 freeway. I spend many years there in that hell hole
