This is one seriously creepy pic Motts...damn!
think its a little moldy in here
Only one thing worse than asbestos... moldy asbestos....
If the asbestos is moldy, it has to be wet. asbestos is practically harmless when wet.
yup yup

I finally explored the inside of this building (with some company) but I missed the basement.... I'm not sure my nerves are prepared for that...
When I think Greenhouse first thing that jumps into my mind is not basement.


Asbestos is not a real threat if you don't move it.
Unfortunately in this age in which we live the big fad is to move it.

Years ago all breaks were lined with it.
just out of curiousity motts, have you ever entered a place that has no graffiti?
Sure, there are some places that are very difficult to access, or very remote locations that don't have any graffiti.
it's very dangerous to revome asbestos. don't revome the pipe and don't tear the insulation (it's there so that in the winter, the pipe will not crack). the best thing to do, which all home inspectors advise these days, is to COVER the asbestos. you can call your local hardware store to find out what additional insulation you can use to cover that because then you have even more insulation. i remember when the asbestos problems were first discovered. many old frame houses are sided with asbestos, which actually is the best insulator for frame structures. more people were put at health risk by removing the siding rather than just siding over it. what you do not want to have is HANGING, UNCOVERED asbestos. talk to a home inspector about that.
