Mack, NJ has them too, all in Sussex county Like I said I bet every state has them, you should just be a little more specific with information.. It's like trying to paint the Mona Lisa on a pinhead with a broad brush

You may wish to contact your local reference library (or historic society) and ask for old maps of your area showing schools, parks, swimming holes, amusement parks, ---any place people gathered back in the day--that, where today it is vacant or abandoned.
