Conservation House

Bridgewater, NJ

I will have much better pics tomorrow. Heading back down there. This house is slated to be razed. It sucks, the place looks really interesting. One of my co-workers told me You can get lost in this place.

Too bad about that house being razed eventually, looks like a neat place.

We went inside today from top to bottom. Lots of cool moldings and designs.

Looks like the house could be fixed up in a jiffy. This house needs to be in good hands to be restored.

looks like there is no more pictures, so misterpat actually DID get lost in the place.

how does a place like that become abandoned? I mean it looked like it was lived in and then a family died and it was left that way forever.

Actually, I was talking to some co-workers today, and my original post is inaccurate. They tell me they are going to preserve this house.
