In the remaining months of 2022, the former Allstate headquarters located just outside of Chicago, Illinois was put up for sale with a possibility of demolishing it for a logistics center. The property's dramatic decline was largely a result of the C-19 pandemic, which emptied the office complex, forcing more than 8,000 employees to work remotely. This made paying for the building's maintenance, utilities, and taxes a poor investment. Especially after realizing that most jobs could be completed with work from home positions. In December 2022, the massive office complex was officially sold and the 2 million square feet building began demolition. Today, we're going to show you one last look at what was left behind.

DISCLAIMER: Exploring abandoned and decaying places is very dangerous and can lead to injury or even legal consequences if you are not properly prepared. Get permission from the land owner before exploring places like these and be extra cautious when exploring alone. Wear the proper exploring gear and always let someone know where you are.
The code of urbex (urban exploration) is to leave the location just as you found it. Don't steal anything, vandalize, or spray paint. Take only pictures and leave only footprints.
