Filtered Light

Beautiful light! What a great shot! The composition is wonderful!

Beautiful, Motts!! That green patch at the top of the wall...mold, maybe?

This place has beautiful, unspoiled windows.

I love the marble.

I love those Windows!!

I love both.

Lovely - looks like a church.

Is the marble real?

It looks like a swirl on the wall, kind of...

Like Lynne, this shot really reminds me of a church. It's an incredible shot Motts, I love the light through the window!

This place looks like it was only abandoned yesterday. Those windows are just immaculate not to mention the whole place is a marble palace. I hope this place does not end with a fate like Danvers.

Very pristine, again, love the leaded glass!

NICE PIC!

Could that possibly be a water spot high on the wall? Maybe the roof leaks? It would be a shame to see this place razed. The beautiful entrance, windows and marblework, would make a better Hotel. That way it could be put to a happier use.. since we can already guess the sadness these walls have witnessed!

great walls :o)

Is that an alcove where window is? The window is really pretty. What is the design in the window?

i've lived in connecticut my whole life, yet for some reason i had never been to this area of the state until 2000. i was going to a norwich navigators game and had time to kill, so i took a trip on rte 12. all of a sudden this place just descended on me and freak me out to the max.
like most of the folks on the site i have been into abandoned buildings since i was a kid in the 60's. but this place just did my head in. the really weird thing is the northeastern part on connecticut is crawling with weird abanonded place (also some weird not abandoned places such as the wacky packy liquor store in moosup.)
i would suggest to get off I-95 in groton and drive route 12 all the way up to the mass. line in thompson. it is a complete acid trip (and i haven't touched the stuff since 1978!!)
the town of balouville is amazing, and wait till you see the abandoned mill in north grosvenordale (if it's still there?)
anyway, sorry for rambling here but i think you all can get my drift. abandoned buildings rule!!!!

yep the nsh has a way to jump at you- the marble is real (people have chipped ALOT of it) the place including the massisve fireplace are real- the attention they put in to this place- i wonder they said they were going to remove the fireplace- I haven't been there lately but does anyone know?

I work at the Wacky Packy!

always wanted to see inside. was there once when a friend was there, (acid) but that was brief @ in the 70`s. i live right across the river.

still want to visit it
