So many, but I think my favorite was The Boyce Thompson Center in Yonkers, NY around 2004.
Pic when it was abandoned (which was after I went because it still had some windows back then): https://www.yonkersny.gov/Home/ShowPublishedImage/13314/635695526682900000
Now it’s been turned into some kind of mall thing according to google.

It was huge and creepy with underground tunnels that were flooded. The elevator shafts were standing open. We found a giant safe stuck on the stairs. It was one of the coolest experiences. Sadly, this was before everyone had a camera phone and I don’t think any of the crust punks I was with took any actual pictures.
