Funny, I count four.

I can only answer the last one. That house is mine. I recently purchased it from the city for the low low cost of one dollar. Why so low you ask? Because it's an area they want developed, it's been sitting there for years, and they'll make more off of me in the form of taxes when I fix it up.


Was that you who sprayed the blown ceiling material on the walls in that one room and painted it bright pepto pink?

There is a hotel in a small town down here that is very similar to this. Not quite as elaborate, but looks interesting none the less. Upper floors have been abandoned for years. I think there is a hole in the wall restaurant on part the ground level. I haven't been there in awhile, maybe I'll go Saturday and scout it out....



Another Conrad Hilton masterpiece.

1) Coffee Shop or diner at the hotel
2) It's at huge marble massage table that was mounted in the wall. There were two alcoves with two massage table each in both the women's and men's spa areas. Someone tried to get these out and wound up breaking most of them
3) It is a ventilation hood over that table in the laundry room. It was used to carry away the rotting corpse fumes before they tossed the bodies in the incinerator around the corner. LOL It was actually not there to take fumes out but to take heat away and cause a bit of ventilation in this closed in room. Laundries can get kind of hot, especially in the summer. The table is not original but is just there for show.
4) the house out back is an abandoned house about a block from the hotel that we went through later that day.

I don't think you've seen a photo of the room he's talking about. It's not the hotel, it's the house on the hill above the hotel.

Which room are You talking about? The one I'm making reference to is in the house up the street from the hotel. Someone has gone and sprayed that soft lumpy acoustic ceiling material on the walls then painted a yucky bright pink paint over that. It's a real gut heaver if you ask me. If you're talking about the lavender colored room at the hotel, it was originally called a library but it was most common for the ladies to gather there and play bridge.

Some shots from an old hotel west of town. Originally built in 1929. Didnt get a chance to go through it in as much detail due to time and a tour coming through so scheduling a trip back in a couple of weeks, not to mention hopefully it will be cooler!

I have been prowling around it myself lately. There are not any boards that I have seen, which strikes me as odd, but I have not seen, nor heard anything about any future plans. Still have not found a way in, but I could stand to check it out more thoroughly.
