Amusement Games in the Glass Bank Building

            These skill games were tucked away in storage at the now-demolished Glass Bank Building in Cocoa Beach, Florida. The Glass Bank was once home to First Federal Savings and Loan and was built in 1961 in an eclectic midcentury modern / international style. Frank Wolfe, one of the building's owners in its later years committed suicide at the building in February of 2014, presumably after the power to his penthouse on the top floor was cut off. Exploring the building was unsettling and eerie. I was photographing it merely months after Mr. Wolfe killed himself there, and - though I don't believe in ghosts/spirits/whatever - I didn't feel comfortable in the building. Strange things were happening to my equipment, my flashlights were malfunctioning and odd sounds were emanating from within the walls. Six months after this photograph was taken, the building was demolished.
