Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
As people over on YouTube commented, the maintenance worker they spoke with at the end was very probably Victoriano Diaz, the one that was killed by electrocution in July. Very sad... seemed like a very nice gentleman.
Not that there was ever any chance of anything productive to be made of the remains of Northridge at this point, it's still sad to see how quickly it's devolved. A few years ago, the mall was like a time capsule. Everything was so well preserved that you could even easily tell which former storefronts were which. Now, they're almost all so trashed they're indistinguishable.
So weird to see this. I worked at the Best Buy across the street, which is now a patch of grass.
I've heard ever since Casey Neistat's Christmas video, break-ins have skyrocketed.
Back in the 90's I used to drive up there from Illinois to deliver Beanie Babies and chocolates
Shout out to /u/BryanTPP and /u/michaelbrnd, thanks for letting us take another walk down memory lane!
Sad to see things in such poor condition, very cool nonetheless.
Keep up the great work!

There are airsoft games there now apparently, sounds pretty sweet
Worked nearby in the 80s, often went for lunch and shopping.
