These wooden supports were the only restoration efforts done to the building, in the 1970's.

glad they still keep it up. its sad when they tare places like this down, theyre echos of the past that tell you things
there they are.
they should have kept it for its historical vaule (at the least)
Those wooden supports, I think, just add to the drama of the building in all of its abandonment. I'm glad they put for the effort to try and salvage it, but at the same time, how much effort could hoisting some beams and putting up a chainlink fence take?
How could they allow this peice of history to go to waste? Give it to me I'll give a detailed tour of the Renwick smallpox Hospital and use to money to restore it's history!
Construction worker: Well, I've done all I can do.
Interesting to see a structure 60+ years into it's natural decay process. Most buildings fall to the wrecking ball before it gets to this stage. Roof, floor, & walls are all gone courtesy of mother nature. Beautiful architecture & stonework.
