It was pretty shitty. Crap all over the place, graffiti...etc. Tis a shame...was a fun place to have a safety check. I'll forever be indebted to Andy for showing bringing me there the first time...and Violetta for patiently waiting.

I was hoping this was a joke. Sad but true maybe..? I guess the internet and public forums are not the best place to discuss such "gems?". I only heard of Coopers because of AZ and did not have a chance to visit. I know of very few of these "gems"(for lack of a better word) but would be willing to trade my "knowledge" of such for the opportunity

That sounds funny if you think about it.It was shitty with crap all over the place and yet you'll forever be indebted to me Twas a piece of history. You're description makes me think of CBGB.
