1. Woodward Avenue Presbyterian Church
You didn’t really think you would get through this list of abandoned places without at least one entry from Detroit, did you? Of course not. Michigan’s largest city is the capital of abandoned buildings. And it should not be all that surprising that this church is the only one in which spray-painted graffiti is a prominent feature.
It might not be immediately obvious in this particular photo, but others of the same building show it nicely, and if you look close enough you can see some lovely slogans scrawled across the church’s rotting pews. The oddest and, arguably, creepiest aspect of this church isn’t its Gothic architecture, dusty stained glass windows, or moulding walls, but the reason the building was abandoned.
Although the church had struggled with a diminishing congregation, it wasn’t completely abandoned until 2005 when the pastor died. It seems that once he passed away, no one really knew what to do with it and it has sat in a state of disintegrating limbo ever since.
