  • Miles away from any town lies a neighborhood left stagnant and now overgrown for over 10 years. Many things remain inside this once thriving community. We find cars, homes left untouched and many children toys scattered all around. One day all those kids left along with their families and no one has returned since. Today , ‪@UrbexAndChill‬ and I check out what remains, if you enjoy the video leaves a thumbs up. and thank you for watching.

      We have a huge brand new jail that was never used that’s been talked about converting to homeless housing but it’s too far out of the city with no transit lines. It’s too bad because it’s really a beautiful facility.

      Could be a lot of reasons:
      localised environmental hazard maybe, toxic spill or waste leak.
      The land could have been bought up for mineral rights say then not developed.
      The neighbourhood may have been illegally developed in the first place & the land was returned to the owner. Probably no way to know without knowing where it is.
      Some of those houses look as though they'd been squatted at some point or used for 'recreational purposes' from the covered windows.

  • @mancima
    @mancima 3 года назад +35

    Great explore. Very creepy how the place was abandoned all at once. My guess, legal issues. Not sure if the story told in the beginning was true but the property must have been deeded to a single owner. When they died the tenants were “locked out”. Ownership was in dispute and the doors were literally nailed shut. With mob involvement it’s no wonder the tenants just walked away. I know you are a New York guy so I love when I spot that you are visiting a New York location, like when you flashed on ‘The Daily News’ in one shot.

    The random “downed” powerlines may be from squatters that knew how to bootleg electricity. I grew up in the hood and ppl would get ladders and direct their own power to their homes when they got cut off. Dangerous but possible. Back in the day you could do it with cable too. 😂 may explain why some homes seem to have the windows blocked and more recently occupied, despite the obvious overgrowth and decay. Could be wrong though.

    BTW, the abandoned red car in the video is a 1984 Chevrolet Camaro. In fact Chevrolet also made in the same body styled the Z28 Camaro and the Berlinette Camaro. Pontiac had the Firebird Trans Am. In 1977 Burt Reynolds drove one in the movie Smokey and the Bandit. These are now considered as classics vehicles. I'm surprised that someone hasn't taken it and restored it back to it's original style.

      The general reason why no one would have taken it is mostly cause the circumstance that caused it to be there, its in rough shape and basically needs to be rebuilt from the ground up... so it would be a project, but since its abandoned no one would know who to call to buy it and well it may have been stolen and ditched there years ago... notice how it has no plates... the circumstance is simply too odd, for someone to spend money on the car only to then have it taken away when trying to register it because its in a stolen vehicle report.

I don't break into houses or vandalize places either...unless they're about to have a rendezvous with a wrecking ball. It's highly unlikely that the Mafia made everybody leave. They probably left in a hurry because of the 2008 recession and their utilities were shut off. Mats stapled to the windows? Someone probably used a few of these homes as trap houses for drug deals.

      @@alphiekc5923 It might be one of those instances where people overstate how dangerous areas are. I've heard that if you're driving through Gary, you shouldn't even come to a complete stop at the red lights.

      I live about 15 mins from Gary in Portage, IN, and I can promise you it's not a place you wanna stay. all the cars fly through without stopping. with good reason.

      Centralia PA is abondoned as well. Because of the coal mine fires that still burn underground to this day.

    There are some really beautiful lighting fixtures in these homes. The different size and shape of windows are unique but I know first hand how expensive it is to replace those because they have to be special ordered.

    The long buildings are the oldest, the original resort motel maybe built in the 1960's. The kit homes are newer. As someone stated here, the owner was killed by crackheads. Some people leave thinking they will come back to get their stuff but then don't for various reasons, especially if they owe money to the estate and they get locked out.

    This reminds me of “The Walking Dead”. Just nothing but wondering monsters out and about .. also the items and houses or vehicles that used to be used.
