If you are going then go soon...it will all be coming down. They have cleared some of the brush for the press conference they had a few months ago and ceremoniously knocked down the "Philadelphia State Hospital" sign. The ticks are VERY bad there and the guys clearing the brush were almost in tears when they got covered with them. Security seems tighter but it is a huge place with a lot of ground to cover. Not sure how they will implode the tunnels but it seems all of it - including many if the very old trees - are just going down at once. It is also home to a ton of wildlife so who knows what will happen to all the birds and animals. Hope they don't run out into Route 1 to be killed!
