Mott has done some stunning work on this site, but this has to be one of his best. There is an air of finality to this picture, like mental abuse winning, self-apocalypse or something.. It doesn't get any grittier and grimier than this picture!

Great pano! I never saw this!!! It feels like I'm in the tower right now.

The reason Danvers was lost was due to a number of reasons, high real estate values in the area, the litigious state of MA due to greedy lawyers and the fact that Danvers was an attractive nuisance for which DCAM was responsible, behind the scenes collusion between the Danvers politicians and Avalon Bay, (bribing, etc...) and the false "need" for affordable housing in Massachusetts, since it seems most of the people that move into these places aren't even from this state, so we shouldn't need it in the first place. Chapter 40B people...look it up....

"That...and the budget cuts...and POOF..."

As for the witch business, that DID all happen around Hathorne Hill and Danvers, nothing really happened in Salem. Danvers didn't want the notoriety associated with what happened, so Salem took and profited from it. The "Witchcraft Heights" area is more of a marketing thing concocted when they built that neighborhood I believe.
Nathaniel Hawthorne's surname spelling was changed to that from "Hathorne" to distance his family from the judge who presided over the trials, who was his great-grandfather, and refused to repent over his involvement.

That chair was saved from the destruction by a salvage company, and was given to my friend as a gift...it's all clean now.
