How old is the Ladd School Motts.
I'm not Motts, but I believe it was 1907 or 1908.
Yeah, i think that's what he said so that would be 100 years old now!
Yay! Back in America! I love the Europe pics and all, but I feel like I can relate better to the American pics. Maybe I'm closed-minding.
Debbie: the Ladd school was established in 1907 (as described on the main building page - http://www.opacity.us/...the_ladd_school.htm)

This particular building was probably built in the mid-1950s however.
This looks a lot like the stables of the Severence estate that I used to play near when I was little...
The school is an hour across the bay from me, theres a "virtual museum" as its called with loads on this place out in cyberspace, you can probably find by google...
Awesome pics Motts, i was wondering when you'd do this place.
what was this building and do you have any information on it? because i heard it was the boys dorm but then i heard froma nother web site that the howe building next to the hospitals was the boys dorm?
It is one of 2 boys dorms
It's so desolate.

I grew up on the street where the back entrance connected... less than two minutes walking distance. I can say from personal experience... the place is *weird.*
Be advised. Penetration very dangerous and risky. Don't leave your car anywhere on the grounds unless it's hidden very well.
