This is now considered a historic site, but i Doubt theyll ever preserve it besides having put the metal support beams..and there are some like building n scaffolding pieces in the enter of the entire building..

I guess im the 3rd one here..
Well I've been here a good 5 times and I tried climbing up the stairs but it wasnt strong enough, I got up to the 3rd floor from another point though..

Contrairy to popular belief, Old Maintenance was NOT the first building to be built (or at least started). C-9 was started in 1910, C-13 (old laundry) in 1911, Old Maintenance obviously in 1913, C-3, 6, and 12 in 1912, C-1, 5, 7, 11 in 1918, C-2, 4, 8, 10 in 1924, C-14 (infirmary) in 1932, and Old Administration in 1922.

Rubber Johnny lmfao... that video is great. People must see it... http://www.ebaumsworld...sh/rubberjohnny.html

Such irony.

You could use your Cadillac GPS and locate the hotel and gather aaaaaaaallllll of the light bulbs! Just think of the fun! err, right

I just ran an eBay search and there are a lot of Pines items on there. Cadillac GPS system? Anyone who wanted to find the Pines could run a Google search without using a GPS system. You sound like my dad every time he uses his Escalade's OnStar to get directions to a place that's around the corner. haha

No, these are definitely lamp fixtures hanging from the ceiling.

The hell with it, paint 'em green and open the damn hotel.

Alright, who pissed in the tub again, damn.

I am sure if you looked enough you would walk into a room and find someone sitting and looking out the window. Perhaps they would great you with a soft, "Hello." Then, they would turn back to looking out the window. I know this person is still sitting in a room there.

Ah, yes, I too recall those days. But, the worst thing will be when someone finds all of the bodies of the people that had to be disposed of once the place was shut down and all of the illegals were disposed of to hide the years of slave labor that was forced upon them.

Crap, this stuff gets better and better all of the time.

I've never seen The Pines in my life, but sure enjoy writing about the days where I spent hours and hours as a child with a pocketful of grass seed and crawled around carefully planting the stuff in the carpets everywhere because I knew that it would grow like mad someday and force the place out of business.

definitely hair dryers... yep, hair dryers

I am glad to see these buildings go and so is South Bend : )

Yeah, we cut the hands off of vandals in the Midwest Motts. haha
