Glad to see you are back with a new ggallery, and hope all goes well for you!!
P.
I am so sorry to hear of your terrible treatments at different hospitals, Gaebler really was hell to say the least, a lot of mental,verbal and physical abusive as well as sexual abusive went on there. I understand everything you say about how you feel and not be able to be touched, When you go thru something that horrific it's hard to trust anyone, even your family and loved ones, it must certainly changes the person you are, it's not your fault, it's the Dept of Mental Healths fault and them thinking they had the right to abuse us they way they did and drug us as well. I hop e that someday you will be able to come to terms with all that has happened to you so you can show the world and everyone who counted you out that you are better than they say you are and they can kiss your ass......If you ever want to talk, I do have a facebook account, you just have to friend request me, my name is Michelle D.Woods and I also have pictures and videos of Gaebler on my fb.....

I live in the area of the hotel (see it daily) and it's truley a sad story that our history is being ripped away from us. The original part of the Hotel still stands, but parts of the road and sidewalks all around the place are blocked off, supposedly because the place is so unsafe. However when u drive by the boarded windows look as if tho they have been tappered with. Probably from urban explorers and the homless still looking for somewhere to stay. Anyways CityVest is actually (from what I heard owned by a group of local millionaires and politicans), are former congressman is one the owners. Anyone familiar to this area knows that the last few years have been filled with public scandals. Judges, our former county commissioner and numerous others have been accused, some tried and convicted now sitting in federal prison. Most of the crimes.....bottom line money... just google, kids of cash scandal, Luzerne County. Yes, are judges putting kids in detenton centers and getting kickbacks. My guess ...that $6M they obtained almost a decade ago went into their pockets as this beatiful hotel and this county goes to shit!!!! There have been pro-testers out there to save the hotel but at this point most residents just want something done. The hotel Sterling at this point is the perfect example of this community, years ago it was beatiful and filled with so much promise, now its just a crumbling mess!
Glad to hear from you... and hope things get back to "normal" soon
I can never get enough from this site... I keep coming back
Wow
Why is that Modern, abandoned buildings just don't age as well as older structures. Some of the old building seems to be in such good shape for being around for so long.

I think that I was the last baby to be baptized there on 12/31/41. It saddens me to see such architecture being torn down. Why does Europe have such beautiful buildings and here we tear down everything?

It sounds like they are still using the records from what Motts said. It probably made sense to someone to leave them locked up here and available for research verses transporting all of them elsewhere.

Various entities have different rules for how long records must be kept. Animal records in the US must be kept for 7 years, airplane parts records ( especially the turbine blades ) must be kept for the life of the part or airframe.

This would be the room where they cleaned the zombies, ritually and physically, before sending them off to play with the townsfolk.

Mmmmmm, smells like fresh zombie!!

Looks like it could also be used for dripping Absinthe through sugar cubes...

I won't ask about why they need a viewing window into a morgue reffer unit.

I won't say anything tacky like "them's good eatin'"

And I won't mentian Zombies, because obviously, the goats have the problem well in hand.
