Was planning on going in soon as it looked accessible. Is the fire damage enough to present a serious dangers? Also is the bridge walkable, it looks super cool.

Last time I was there was a few years back, and the fire damage had only affected the top few floors at the time. Hopefully the piano and diorama are still inside!

My memory may be wrong, but I think the bridge may lead to an active building? Keep your eyes and ears open and you should be fine.

Oh wow I didn't realize the extent of the damage. Thanks for the tip. It looked like some lights were on but the doors were boarded shut so we weren't sure. I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Yeah, mindwavve, when I went the connected building was active, but like you said that was a few years back.

Edit: And by a "few" I apparently mean "5".

When Shemp and I went it was in three years ago and the building across the sky walk was active. There was a bolted door in the skywalk and you could see someone using it for storage. Recently when I was down there I could be a contractor key into the garage on the main floor.
