There was a distinct foot path around the locked gates and up the driveway. I thought for sure it was going to be covered with graf but to my surprise, the walls have been spared.

Good to see this one is still around. It has really gone down hill in the couple years since I was there. I was wondering if you would be able to access the second floor.

Crisp, gorgeous photography! Indeed, like Dave, it's nice to see this place still around. I got the privilege of being able to explore this location while the floors were still all fairly sound. The old claim-to-fame of this location is that the old phone still had a live line. It actually caused a whole debate a long time ago as to whether there was a possibility that Bell could possibly 'lose' an account and have it disappear into the ether in just the right way that the phone line would remain active in perpetuity. There were some past explorers that copied the number down off the dial of the phone and proceeded to call the house when a different group of explorers were inside, giving them quite the shock!

A double post of the same message... absolutely no idea why. Figured I'd at least post an old photo of the house while the back of it was still standing.

Can confirm LOL, I was one of the recipients of a surpriser phone call, scared the shit out of me LOL. I didn't answer it but I quickly got a text from the urbex prankster asking me if the phone just rang!

Great set. I assume developers own this property now or something? I can only assume how solid this place was in it's glory.
I'm a supporter of gay rights. & not a closet supporter either. From the time I was a kid, I've never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. There are so many qualities that make up a human being. By the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant. - Paul Newman |

Nice, man. As always
You always find something if you look, it's just not always quite what you were looking for |

Nice colors here!!
Kabbalah is an undramatic tradition that requires great patience and stability. One of the reasons for this tempo is that everyone has to mature his potential gradually and thoroughly at his natural pace. In this way his life's work unfolds at the right moment in his own and the cosmos's time. Z.B.S. Halevi -- Kabbalah |
