Old Wreck Near New Hospital

Demolished House in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada

*** UPDATE: House was demolished September 2012. Site has been completely leveled and cleaned up for redevelopment. Database entry has been moved to "public access". ***

Hard to believe that this old box of a house has managed to sit here for years with all of the city/counstruction workers and inspectors driving by every day building the new hospital. Check out pic #3 and you can get a feel for the proximity with the new hospital in the background. The place is an absolute wreck with multiple POEs. I tried to explore this one a year ago and didn't have a flashlight - now there are so many holes you do not even need one. A family of raccoons lives above the ceiling and growled the entire time I visited. Sort of unnerving, as I have never heard raccoons this defensive!

I wouldn't risk getting my stones shot off at this spot now I know the warning. mhinc might have saved people a ride on the pain train, so thanks!

Guess I got lucky on both visits. Can't imagine anyone valiantly defending this disaster, but if you have experienced otherwise, perhaps this location should be private. I will switch it accordingly.
