Why oh why do they let places go like this?

Lobby Stairs

Are there any plans for this resort; remodeling maybe, demolition? How about some condominiums? Isn't that what they normally do when a place is beyond repair?

Shell

I think the vines and growth are holding it together. If those walls ever let loose, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near it.

Motts, please tell me you will be putting all your pictures in books someday? That's what I buy all the time; books on abandonements, ghosts towns---almost anything of the way things WERE.

Hilltop

This just seems so out of place where it's located, don't you think? But then many yyears ago they did used to build ALOT of mansions.

It's like someone was working on something one day, got up, and walked away! Strange.

Lab Reports

Nancy

If these papers or reports are of no interest, then why hold on to them? It still baffles me how a place can close up and everyone just walks away and everything; mostly everything; in some cases, just gets left behind. No wonder vandels get their hands on things. This stuff shouldn't be laying around in the first place.

File Room

Nancy

This is also what the big stink at Danvers was; having the patients private records left behind as if nobody cared. I can't believe they let all that paperwork just sit around like that.
