Big Ed, the guy who got you the brick is absolutely right about the tunnels still being there, Only about 15' out from the building was removed, the rest still runs through the grounds. Yes this will cause a future problem someday won't it. If only these developers could look that far into the future and realize what problems they may be causing for future generations..

From what the gut who got me my brick. From what he saw and learned, the tunnels are still intact just sealed up with fill for about 15 feet. Granted most of the tunnels are original they will eventually collapse. They are all chocker block filled with asbestos. Worst case the asbestos deteriorates further and gets into the water table ( the gounds surrounding the hospital at the bottom of the hill are old swampland) Or it gets into the air from out of the holes in the ground that will open up.

I do wonder how clean the abatement was, the building was gutted and demolished very quickly...

Majestic!

Danny Being Manny noticed the same thing I did (be afraid Danny, be very afraid). My first thought was this chair looks like something out of PeeWee's Playhouse. It's kind of grouchy looking with one eye kind of leering and the other one shut, a dickeyed up mouth and a few battle scars. It looks like it's saying "come on, sit on me seat, I dares ya!". Then again, it probably looks ornery from having all kinds of smelly arses plunked in it.

Yep, terrible shame a building with such workmanship is left to decay. However, aren't all the pipes, or a good portion, wrapped in crumbling asbestos? Complete collapses make the asbestos problem almost impossible, or I would think.

Fabulous photography! Thank you for providing us with crisp, clean photos. I have visited other sites where so called "ghost hunters" have taken photos, but they all seem to "mysteriously" have orbs and hazy apparitions. Yours, however, didn't. Hmmm....

two thumbs up!

P.S I'm a fan of the famous white star liner RMS titanic

there is a lot of dust in there

Go on ebay; there's plenty of Danver's things for sale. But, excuse me for saying, I think that's pathetic.

There's pain and misery everywhere; not just asylums.
