I'd go. When I was a kid on the northside, there was this old abandoned school which the kids called "Bateman". We went inside once, creepy, but great architecture!!! Tried to look this up recently, and the only Bateman school that comes up is an entirely different place. This was around the Dearborn, Goethe area in the 70's. Does anyone know about this old building? Maybe it was a house?

Those are beautiful.
Lots of older buildings are being knocked down nowadays for condos.
