It will be interesting to see just how many closed up due to the flu places reopen. Our favorite restaurant is slightly re-opened, they were doing take-out orders the last few days, and are open to indoor dining on limited basis today. But I think a lot of small to medium shops will be closed, and it will give the big companies time to close up undesirable places they were having union troubles closing pre-flu season. So derelict building hunting in 3 years could be booming.

Yes, it has crossed my mind. I do prefer old places, preferably with some kind of grisly history. There's a lunatic asylum I have my eye on, there's not a lot left but I'm still going to visit when this virus is gone.
It seems one would have to ask why so many abandoned lunatic asylums, even in America those things get abandoned, and there have been a lot of spooky movies about them. I am sure they are not the number one institutional type building that gets abandoned, I know there are a lot of old hospitals,and prisons, and even schools, but they don't get as many movies made about them as lunatic asylums, I think people just like the word lunatic.
They used to get the straightjacket treatment here 100 years ago. If you were crazy then the loony asylum was your home. Many have been demolished, though a few remain.
