I just Googled Danvers, and there is a book of old photographs of Danvers on e-bay selling for $1,000. A few weeks ago, there was a brick on e-bay with the highest bid at the time for $26.00 (for one brick from Danvers!) plus $19.50 for shipping.

I absolutely agree with Jules this did not have to happen. AvalonBay is the company that bought the property and have demolished almost all of the site. So, I hope they go bankrupt and that the place makes no money for them. They could have used the entire Kirkbride building for a museum or art museum or whatever. It just goes to show that money talks -- and you know what walks. It disgusts me entirely.

This is one of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen. At least we have this to hold on to, since it no longer exists. Alas.

I have this photo as my wallpaper on my computer at work. I get so sad when I see this and know it no longer exists. Bye the way, I noticed recently that a brick from the demolition was going for $26.00 on e-bay. Some things never fail to amaze me.

Like I said in my remarks on the previous picture -- I hope the spirits of those poor souls run these greedy low lifes out and that they go into bankruptcy.

As of today, April 25, 2006, almost the entire Kirkbride building has been demolished, along with all of the outbuildings -- it's an American Tragedy. I hope the ghostly spirits of all of the mentally departed haunt the new construction. I'm just so totally incensed about this waste.

Yeah -- too bad it no longer exists! They have torn down almost the whole Kirkbride building.

Those outer doors look too big to close -- or it it an optical illusion? They just look too big to me!!

All you have to do is put it in the washer with a little soap and bleach -- that's my handy hint for the day.

This is what makes me so sad about these beautiful historic places -- their eventual demise.

This room is awesome -- windows on both sides -- could be used as a roller rink. Great picture!!
