This combination drone and handheld video footage of an abandoned building on the Charleston Navy Base compound shows a downtrodden view of a once grandiose building initially used to house sailors.

As part of the 1993 recommendations from the Base Realignment and Closure Commission, in 1996 this building was abandoned with the closure of the Charleston Navy Base. Prior to its closure this particular building had been converted into an office complex.

Tour the exterior by drone and, by foot, see the interior of this fascinating example of urban abandoned ruins. We think you’ll agree the remains of this abandoned South Carolina building are truly grim.

The 1996 closure of the Charleston Navy Base was a stunning blow to the community as a whole. Twenty years later, even though Charleston and her surrounding communities have bounced back, these abandoned buildings still eerily dot the landscape at the closed Navy base like a ghost town on the coast.
