Rusted Passage

drBob, when transporting patients, would you walk them through these doors? Would there be just one attendant and one patient? Sorry, I'm just curious as to how it worked. Seems a little scary to me...

Big ED, if you're still here, do you know what's happening with all the bodies that are buried on the grounds? When they're tearing up the place for the crappy new condos, are they leaving the bodies or removing them to another location? I keep thinking about Poltergeist, where the cemetary was supposed to have been moved but wasn't really, and the spirits were very unhappy to have houses built over their graves!

Anyone? Where are the graves going?

Disarray

Terra, I'm with you. I have always known about Danvers, but hadn't realized till I found this site late last night that it had been bought and ruined. I was up till 4am looking at these pictures and feeling like someone had kicked me in the stomach. How incredibly sad that they are gone.

If anyone is still on here, can you tell me the state of affairs as of Sept 2006? Has anyone got any pictures of what they left? I get the feeling it isn't much, just a shell of the main building, someone said.

It makes me sick...this was acres and acres of untouched history - medical and cultural and architectural. "Avalon Bay" (what a pretentious name) should be ashamed. I hope the condos are haunted as hell!!

Red Curtains

Julie

Now why would they remove all the curtains here, but leave all the lobby seating and the dining room intact? Doesn't make sense to me..

Motts...you never said where this plant is ..my hubby would like to know. He is pretty knowledgable about power plants, but he never heard of Eagle River. In U.S. or not?

My husband is a power plant operator here in New England. His comments on these pics.....Back then they designed really nice buildings..notice how art deco they seem.. Also notice the ceiling. Most plants were built with clear glass panels originally, but during war time all the glass was painted so as not to be detected as easily by enemy planes. Still true today that power plants are a big target...

I use to hang at Byberry when I was just a youngster. Oh how I miss it . Those were the good old days.
Getting high, drinking, walking through the buildings in the pitch dark. And running from the cops. Again how I miss those days.......SIGH
