The Mansion was originally 2 houses. They where later connected by a center wing.

Many people are upset it wasnt preseved, but it should have been done long ago, The front wall of the mansion collapsed over a year ago. The bathtub that crashed through the second floor before that hurried the wall to its demise. As i said before. The mansion was demolished May 2005. The school still stands. But for how long?

It was torn down May 2005

OK, THIS IS LIKE...REALLY GROSS AND STUFF.

THEY ARE EVERYWHERE AT THIS PLACE!

WHY ARE THESE CHAIRS ALL OVER THE PLACE?

OH MY! this is really scary.

There were plans to move the town library there, but the library nixed the idea. "If this site is to be considered further, it is recommended that the existing Salesian Seminary School Building be completely demolished and removed. It will cost less to demolish the existing building and construct a new library in its place than attempting any renovations of the existing structure. The existing building for the Library's use has no salvage value.

The asbestos report prepared in 1998, indicates an estimated cost of $490,962.00 for asbestos removal. This cost did not include the cost of plaster and roofing abatements if required. An updated asbestos removal cost is recommended. It is also recommended that the full requirements for testing as required by Industrial Code Rule 56 be applied. All plaster and roofing materials will have to be tested.

Once abated, the building could be demolished. The most efficient way to demolish this building would be with heavy equipment. The construction demolition material could be sorted for recycling. The two primary end products will be masonry and steel. Disposal of all demolition products is based on weight or tonnage.

Because the costs associated with demolition projects varies greatly based on such factors as trucking distance, availability of disposal sites, workers compensation costs, demolition costs have been solicited from an independent source. Lamela Sanitation will be providing a non-binding estimate of the structure removal cost. Their estimate will be based on all asbestos containing materials being removed in advance of demolition. Mr. Lamela indicated that should the plaster contain asbestos, the owner should consider building demolition as a complete asbestos abatement project. He indicates that plaster removal independent of the structural demolition would be a very expensive and time consuming process that would add greatly to the cost of asbestos abatement.

The demolition costs will be provided to the Goshen Public Library and Historical Society as soon as the estimate is received.

The cost of demolition and removal as well as asbestos abatement should be considered in the value of the property. Property price should be adjusted based on who is performing the abatement, demolition and disposal. "

love it

I agree...I wish he had a million more to look at
unbelievable way of seeing things

I'd be wandering off, never to return.

Great shot.

Looks like it's gutting itself. I've been to a house that looks exactly like this.

Cool room. I'm surprised that the lights haven't been busted up by some dumb kids.

Another really cool pic.
