Beautiful and if in right hands could be re-used for any purpose. In Dedham MA they did old prison into condos when they built new one in between 2 parts of rte. 128! Beautiful and went for a high price, well built stone not like junk for $500k for crap near RR and tons of traffic. Lots of unused buildings in state w/great architecture could be repurposed. They say insulation but then politians buy it for nothing knock them down and pu up $1,000,000 mansions a waste.

This joke made my night!

Thanks for these photos. I'd never been to the park but through your photos and descriptions provided by others, I could feel the enchantment. Through this feeling I was able to revisit many places that I did visit as a child. Motts, your photos are amazing and so inspiring.

we lined up in the study hall and walked in ranks to the chapel everyday for Mass . We sat in the pews in the middle and the nuns were in the individual kneelers around the sides and in the back . The priest would come over from St. Katherine's and say Mass. I graduated from Eden Hall in 1967 and had hoped to return for Alumnae days but did not get the chance to do so because the school closed in 1969.

I attended Eden Hall as a boarding student during my high school years and have fond memories of the beautiful building and grounds.. I graduated from Eden Hall in 1967 and the last class to graduate was the class of 1969. My grandmother, Anne McCloskey Henkels ,was an Eden Hall graduate and wrote to the Reverend Mother General of the Society of the Sacred Heart to implore that the school not be closed ,but to no avail. The sisters had decided to put all of their assets into Stuart Country Day School in Princeton so Eden Hall's fate was sealed. I am now 69 years old and I still remember those four years as some of the best of my life and the Sacred Heart education has proved invaluable to me throughout my life. I walked the grounds today and it broke my heart. if only the chapel had been preserved !

I like the graffiti that we can see in the above deck — "Life's a Bitch."

A sentiment that is the same in any country, regardless of the language.

très belles photo , j ai pu allée le prendre en photo au printemps ce qui donne encore plus de mystère .
malheureusement il a été démolie entièrement et certaine pierre et arcades et toitures des tours on été récupéré pour revivre ailleurs .
la colline est bien vide depuis 2016 .

bonjour , la tour a été conservé et entièrement rénové pour devenir un logement .
en ce qui concerne le moulin et bâtiments il ont été démoli .

The ropes were fastened on both ends with a large sag in the middle; when you put your foot in that sag and pushed off, it acted like a swing which kicked your leg up and out from under you. Would've been much easier to go up with only one end tied, maybe some with some knots... although maybe there's some Portuguese climbing methodology I wasn't aware of!

GREAT pics and descripiton by yaggy. So much activity while an audience sits below absolutely unaware of all the sometime frantic activity just behind them.

I bow to you both - Motts and yaggy.

Oh, absolutely fantastic shot!!!!

I keep expecting to see Phantom's disfigured face looking down from the top.....oh, wait, this is ByBerry....not the Opera house. :-)
