State of Confusion is an open space sim adjacent to Derailed. You can get there by following the bridge at the marina (near landing point) on Derailed. Landscape and sitting areas are also Neva's doing except that I moved/changed a few pieces around.
Because the sim is open space we were limited with what we could do (700 prims) but I think it turned out perfect. The islands have three small hang-out areas that you'll find as you venture further down. The last is up the mountain steps and on the landing.
taxi to Derailed or direct to State of Confusion
It is the model to represent Historical Theatres in Hong Kong "State Theatre" I built it with my friend "Mythbot" over 9 months. I take responsible for model design overall , technical adjustment. We started the project planning since from Mar 2017. My first task was to design the curve of the special roof using LDD in Mar. In mid of October , we started to build according to the real blueprint which is provided from the organizer "Walk in Hong Kong". We created lots of details to enhance the theatre , such as: Classic Tram , Leyland Truck , Local Snacks , Shops. We also built the classic seat area with 2 level : deluxe area and normal area. We use over 20 days to complete the whole model.
It is meaningful, we enjoy in conservation event, we put lot of effort, use Lego bricks to build the huge model for the sake of Save the State Theatre. LEGO builder cannot control anything but we can do anything with bricks. At least , our attempt can help to raise social awareness of heritage preservation.

The Massachusetts State House, also known as the Massachusetts Statehouse or the New State House, is the state capitol and seat of government for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, located in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Boston. The building houses the Massachusetts General Court (state legislature) and the offices of the Governor of Massachusetts. The building, designed by architect Charles Bulfinch, was completed in January 1798 at a cost of $133,333 (more than five times the budget), and has repeatedly been enlarged since. It is considered a masterpiece of Federal architecture and among Bulfinch's finest works, and was designated a National Historic Landmark for its architectural significance.
The building is situated on 6.7 acres of land on top of Beacon Hill in Boston, opposite the Boston Common on Beacon Street. It was built on land once owned by John Hancock, Massachusetts's first elected governor. The Masonic cornerstone ceremony took place on July 4, 1795, with Paul Revere, Deputy Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, presiding.
Before the current State House was completed in 1798, Massachusetts's government house was the Old State House on what is now Washington Street. For the building's design, architect Charles Bulfinch made use of two existing buildings in London: William Chambers's Somerset House, and James Wyatt's Pantheon.
After Maine separated from Massachusetts and became an independent state in 1820, Charles Bulfinch designed Maine's capitol building with architectural influence of the Massachusetts Capitol building with a simplified Greek Revival influence.
The Commonwealth completed a major expansion of the original building in 1895. The architect for the annex was Bostonian Charles Brigham.
In 1917, the east and west wings, designed by architects Sturgis, Bryant, Chapman & Andrews, were completed.
In July 2016, Governor Charlie Baker proposed to the state legislature to sell 300 square feet of permanent easement on the west side of the State House lawn to a neighboring condominium. The land in question was once pasture owned by John Hancock and the easement would allow for the addition of au pair units.
The original wood dome, which leaked, was covered with copper in 1802 by Paul Revere's Revere Copper Company. Revere was the first American to roll copper successfully into sheets (for copper sheathing) in a commercially viable manner.
The dome was first painted gray and then light yellow before being gilded with gold leaf in 1874. During World War II, the dome was painted gray once again, to prevent reflection during blackouts and to protect the city and building from bombing attacks. In 1997, at a cost of more than $300,000, the dome was re-gilded, in 23k gold.
The dome is topped with a gilded, wooden pine cone, symbolizing both the importance of Boston's lumber industry during early colonial times and of the state of Maine, which was a district of the Commonwealth when the Bulfinch section of the building was completed.
In front of the building is an equestrian statue of General Joseph Hooker. Other statues in front of the building include Daniel Webster, educator Horace Mann, and former US President John F. Kennedy. The statues of Anne Hutchinson and Mary Dyer are located on the lawns below the east and west wings. Inside the building is a statue of William Francis Bartlett, an officer in the Civil War.

Earlier this week I made my first visit of the season to Leesylvania State Park in northern Virginia. I saw a total of 20 bird species, including six I had never seen before. This Prothonotary Warbler was having breakfast when I spotted it in the Bushey Point section of the park.

These were taken on my first trip to Henryton State Hospital, on my first real urbex trip.
From 2:30pm to 4:40pm me and a group of friends explored the buildings, and over that time I took about 550 photos.
I've never had so many photographic opportunities around me at once. The environment was a real challenge to shoot in, because of the constantly varying lighting conditions. Overall it was a very fun and rewarding experience though.
To our surprise, there were about 3-5 other groups roaming the hospital grounds at any given moment. People on rooftops, stairways, and even whole families. This place must have ZERO security on weekend afternoons.
Sadly this place, because of it's accessibility and notoriety, is horribly vandalized and run down. In an abandoned building you expect decay and such, but this place was downright beaten; no toilet or window left unbroken, and no wall left untagged.

The Maryland State House is located in Annapolis, Maryland and is the oldest U.S. state capitol in continuous legislative use, dating to 1772. It houses the Maryland General Assembly, plus the offices of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The capitol has the distinction of being topped by the largest wooden dome in the United States constructed without nails.
Thanks for taking a look at my pictures and photostream. I appreciate all the fav's and comments. If you're interested in seeing more photos from my trip to Annapolis, Philadelphia, and New York, check out the rest of the ArmyNavy17 album here.

For all you can say about the important parts of the State Fair of Texas (or any fair)--livestock, parades, autos, etc.--when you were a kid, did you want to see all of that, or did you immediately look for the Midway? A decade before this, my friend Tommy Vaughan and I rode three roller coasters here in rapid succession, with a Coca-Cola break between each. I have never been on a roller coaster since, and I don't want to ride another one, either. A couple of years before that, I lost a wallet on one of the rides. I went back to ask, and the man in charge returned my wallet. There are nice people on the Midways. Note the crescent moon in the upper right hand corner. That's not faked or photo shopped.

A two hour delayed I016-20 crossing the MD/PA State-line on the CSX Lurgan Subdivision.
The corn was high, which ruined a few of the places I had planned to shoot this, but I didn't want to spend the gas money to go a whole lot more North than this, so I'll settle with it!
Seems unlikely what you're telling me,
Mouth such icy ghost grey,
Remember the bitten plum of your lips,
Honey scented candle glow of September,
The grapefruit, burnt pine and clove
Of your fingers on my tongue,
Just close my eyes,
Replay the sound of your voice breaking,
Meet you backwards in time,
When the crack above your bed
Was the crack above mine.

I've been looking for somewhere new to take some pictures; I've spent the last couple of Saturdays just seeing new places and what else is available here in Washington state. This was a beautiful park! I could see our family hanging out here for an afternoon, having a picnic lunch, taking a hike; very nice indeed!
