22. It'll be there. Demolition requires money, after all
Edited on Fri Mar-10-06 07:53 AM by TayTay
And state and local governments are strapped. I'll call my brother and ask him if he can shoot us up there in one of the patrol cars sometime. (He'll do it. He loves the old place and would surely allow one last look-see for me.)

Seriously, I would not buy property up there. Very bad mojo. I told you this before, but that land was available in the 1840's to build a Hospital for the Mentally Infirm on because the land was considered 'cursed.' My Mom told me this. (Old-timers in town told her.) Those fields were covered with apple orchards because the land itself had been owned by one of the people involved in the Witchcraft delusion in the 1690's. The land was considered cursed and no one would build on it. (Okay, what do you do with cursed land anyway? I know, let's build an Insane Asylum on it. Yeah, that's just ups the extreme creepiness factor, doesn't it. And now, Condos!)

Anyway, the whole place is going and condo's are coming. Anyone for a two-bedroom townhouse in Lobotomy Corners? No? How about a ground level one-bedroom in Electro Shock Gardens? Maybe that nice studio in Murdered Innocents Row. (Ah, Massachusetts! Wonky and weird and funny as hell. Obviously, this tickles me no end. I think I have that 'Boston' sense of humor too!)

Remember, location, location, location.
