Reading Broad Street Mall URBEX

[@rubarubadub]

The basement level used to be home to a nightclub called The Target. Closed a long time ago (I think due to a fire evacuation concern?) but the steps down to it still exist and the metal grille was put in place to prevent access. Pretty interesting to see from the other side! The Express lift has sadly been modernised too (not featured in this video but is in Beno's other Reading video)

basement still looks usable.

I think I missed part of that centre when I was in Reading

First time I've seen one of those types of lifts go into a basement. Very strange how it's all been left abandoned like that.

I've always wanted to urbex the abandoned Friers walk Shopping centre in reading, closed back in 2004 if I remember correctly.
