If you see the dark buildings to the right of the image above, those are what used to be the Solvay Coke and Glass factory. That part is now torn down. On the left of the image is a tan-colored set of crumbling arches. Those are the basis of this exploration. The longitude and latitude coordinates of this site are 43.014490, -87.907573. DirectionsPark near 302 E Greenfield Avenue (it doesn't really matter where - since you're in the middle of the city, the police don't patrol for weird cars like they do in suburban exploration sites). There might be a fence up around where Solvay Coke and Glass used to be (that super cool graffiti-covered factory that shows up every few seconds on your Instagram feed), but if you can get around it, there's plenty of things to explore in the back. One easy way is to walk along the train tracks following the Google Map shown above until you see the two tall red-brick towers. There's a link posted below as well and GPS coordinates above.

DirectionsThe coordinates of the actual site are 43.137675, -88.206257, which you can plug into Google maps. Park at NAPA Auto Parts or Sussex Inn in Sussex (hence the name "sexy" or "sussexy" quarry) and walk down the Bugline trail (otherwise known as the sidewalk on Waukesha Avenue). You'll pass underneath a train bridge. Follow any trail through the woods, but the easiest access is ironically right by the "No Trespassing" sign. Before you turn in, make sure there aren't any other walkers that will notice your venture into the wilderness. Once in the tall grass, walk straight. You'll pass over some train tracks. Keep walking. There should be a narrow trail to follow. If you keep going, to the left of the electricity poles should be the quarry. Good luck! Have you been to this quarry? What did you think?

Commonly referred to as "the glue factory", this plant in Oak Creek put Milwaukee on the Urbex market back in 2010 when photographers began to frequent the site. Heavy Urbex traffic caused the city to demolish the location before many could explore its dusty interior. Have you been to the Peter Cooper glue factory? What did you think?

Torn down in 2015, this site, originally built to manufacture whiskey and gin, was one of Milwaukee's oldest buildings and best sites for Urban Exploration. Have you been to Hynite? What did you think? Leave any tips of your own or observations in the comments to help other explorers!
