Abandoned and Strip-Cleared - Part 2 of 2

in #walkwithme8 years ago (edited)

Here is the second set of captures from my recent walk around an old abandoned property in Howell, New Jersey.

It's been abandoned for over a year and I could tell that at least one squatter had set up a make-shift camp in one of the out buildings.

The grounds used to be extremely overgrown with many large willow trees and other shrubbery. You can see a large pile of the chipped and shredded trees in one of the images.

My favorite capture was taken through the front window as I looked at the main stairway, fireplace, and decorative ceiling. However, I could do without the gaudy, green carpet 🤮 And I see that they even left behind a nice Cadillac!

It will be interesting to check back in the future to see what becomes of this property!

Every abandoned house needs a frosty bowling ball

Outstanding scenery. Old looks photo shots. But most stunning with old looks. Excellent #walkwithme post @cognoscere.

@cognoscere, I've check and looked your last part 1. It's more attractive. This one going same way. You've nice eye and vision.
More historical pictures.

Definitely a good setting for a murder mystery. I can imagine all kinds of bad things happening around here.

Very nice job!
You have a good plans :)
Please, check my blog, i'm new here in Steemit :)

I see you got an inside shot of one of the fireplaces. Green rug very tacky indeed. The ceiling and stairway look impressive.

A Yagi antenna!! Gee, this house looks like it was very nice at one time - the front doors are wood and the inside looks grand - except for the said green carpet...ick. How decor has changed.

I have to say I would have been so tempted to "borrow" the bowling ball for my garden.

So much mold and mildew around I doubt this house would be able to be restored.
