ABANDONED - Tupac Shakur Peace Gardens and Statue

0:02 welcome everyone I'm outside of Atlanta

0:02 Georgia today with Jacob the

0:04 carpetbagger and we are going to try to

0:07 hunt down try to find something very

0:09 interesting right outside the abandoned

0:13 tupac shakur Art Center in the Art

0:18 Center

0:19 although abandoned and amazing on its

0:21 own something lies next to it in the

0:24 garden area next to this building we're

0:27 going to see if we can get in here and

0:28 check out what still remains are you

0:30 ready for this let's go join us shall

0:33 you

1:02 potato sitting here in the abandoned

1:02 parking lot a singular potato you gotta

1:05 eat it said you were hungry

1:29 pretty much this area of Atlanta seems

1:29 to be full of abandoned buildings

1:31 abandoned buildings over here and

1:32 abandoned cafe over there an abandoned

1:35 restaurant over there and this Center

1:37 for the Arts located right here is no

1:39 exception

1:40 I do not know what the backstory on the

1:42 Center for the Arts and the connection

1:44 with Tupac Shakur is but just leave some

1:47 comments down below if you guys find

1:49 anything on the interwebs we'll start a

1:51 conversation about this place the

1:55 property in front of the buildings

1:57 actually has a fence in this old torn up

1:59 security sign right there we're not

2:03 actually going to go in the buildings

2:04 and we're not actually going to jump

2:06 over this fence but we are destined to

2:08 see lies right next door in the open

2:11 park next to this facility right over

2:15 there

2:41 seems to have been some sort of very

2:41 kind of like a relaxing park that park

2:43 benches and may have had like a walkway

2:45 you can see all the decorative rocks

2:47 here that a lot of that still there some

2:50 of them have been shifted around the

2:53 main road right over there these plants

2:59 that have been sitting here since this

3:01 place has been closed if you know what

3:03 year this closed feel free to leave

3:06 comments down below and help me figure

3:08 out exactly all the specifics of where

3:10 we are right now here's a security

3:13 camera at the top of this pole obviously

3:17 the pole used to have the wires coming

3:20 out of the pole to protect it from the

3:22 weather so the security wires would have

3:25 stemmed out into that camera the camera

3:28 I'm going to place my bets the camera

3:29 probably is not working anymore and it

3:32 looks like they tried to disguise the

3:34 security camera with this it's a very

3:37 clever disguise mystery type stuff you

3:39 would never know that there was a

3:40 security camera up there back in the day

3:44 fooled you there's a dog up there man

3:50 there's a dog like coming through that

3:52 fence barking I say just carry on

3:55 detected by wild dogs wild dogs broken

3:59 security cameras it's the head meat

4:02 shine it Danny's not here mrs. Torrance

4:09 you're taking the easy way out you're

4:11 not walking through the hedge maze

4:12 you're just jumping over the hedges

4:14 that's cheating

4:14 the breaches maze etiquette the center

4:31 of the hedge maze it looked like there

4:33 was some sort of a fountain there at

4:34 some point so you would go through this

4:37 maze of hedges and you would actually

4:40 encompass yourself in the middle with

4:43 that fountain which no longer works one

4:46 of them old southern spiderwebs cobwebs

4:49 have been attacked by cobs I don't know

4:53 if we're gonna find what we're looking

4:54 for out here I can't really I have a

4:56 seat we carry on should we just give up

4:58 I never give up man

5:00 you're the one sitting keep up just

5:03 you're just taking a break

5:04 yes let's go all right let's carry on I

5:07 know it's out here wait there it is

5:15 the statue of Tupac right here in this

5:20 abandoned garden

5:28 we found it someone has hung a Georgia

5:28 Bulldogs Jersey on him that was here and

5:33 this is close to Atlanta and it has the

5:37 dates here his birthdate and when he I

5:44 guess when he died September 13th 1996

5:47 I'm not saying I'm going to change the

5:50 world but I guarantee that I will spark

5:52 the brain that will change the world and

5:55 they've actually they've actually built

5:58 a statue

5:59 you know Maj to him is there a ring on

6:03 his hand

6:03 hey jewelry a little jewelry here a

6:08 Bible and he's holding a Bible so he's

6:13 holding a Bible and he has a watch and

6:16 some rings there and he's actually not

6:20 it looks like it may be an age version

6:22 of Tupac or maybe I don't know that

6:24 actually kind of does look like how

6:26 Tupac looked like when he died that's

6:31 pretty interesting that you would see

6:32 this outside Atlanta this complete whole

6:36 facility is completely abandoned now and

6:39 this is basically just sitting here no

6:42 one sees this no one knows this is here

6:48 pretty awesome that we actually found

6:48 this when we pulled up I have my doubts

6:51 that they had actually removed it but as

6:54 of right now as of the filming of this

6:56 video this still exists see this little

7:02 brick walkway in front of the monument

7:05 and really there's not a whole lot of

7:08 names it looks like at some point they

7:10 were going to fill all the bricks up

7:11 with names of the contributors but right

7:14 up there there are some very famous

7:17 names if you look closely you can see

7:20 Louis Armstrong there Barry White is in

7:24 there Rick James over there in the far

7:28 corner

7:31 a lot of other Jada pinkett-smith right

7:35 there top corner there

7:46 all along the perimeter are these quotes

7:46 from Tupac engraved and these markers

7:51 that circle the backside and then down

7:59 the hill is a little walkway and some

8:03 benches some flowers a little serene

8:08 part of the garden here off in the

8:15 background the back end of the property

8:17 are some pavilions there they use for

8:20 like picnics and stuff it's over way

8:22 back in the back of the property what is

8:26 I don't know it's another Sun Rose

8:29 Cameron legend never die mom dad and

8:33 sister and that's just planted here

8:35 right on the way back to these cabins

8:42 some sort of little like decorative

8:42 pieces along this walkway it's all

8:46 overgrown with poison ivy and kudzu

8:48 there's a cute little dog right there

8:50 hey doggy hey dog someone actually might

8:56 be living in that pavilion we're not

8:58 exactly really in the Bulldog best area

9:02 of Atlanta so someone's probably living

9:04 back here so we're going to leave we're

9:06 going to leave the pavilions allowed so

9:08 someone's living in in these little

9:10 pavilions

9:24 water yeah sort of like a waterfall at

9:24 some point there's a switch down there

9:26 to the switch turn anything on is the

9:28 power work actually probably not just

9:31 look by your foot by your foot down

9:34 there no power no go

9:56 thanks for watching everybody I think

9:56 we've proven that the statue is still

9:58 here contrary to opinions online check
