Fort Ord
It is hard to tell if this is a skate park or an abandoned military base. The graffiti in the area can truly be misleading. To be fair, it has been a long time since it as used as a base by the US military. Located in Monterey County, Fort Ord was created during WWI. It managed to hold 50,000 soldiers during WWII. It was tagged for closure in the ‘90s. California State University converted several areas and used them.

Forward Operating Base is found in Afghanistan. It was abandoned by the American military in 2014. However, they made sure to leave an important message behind. The instructions were rather simple but very ominous: “Do not tear down.” Do they plan to return to this area? We have no idea why they would want to leave a message like that if this was not the case.
