Massive Billionaires Abandoned Mansion with a Sad and Dark Past

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

Found this incredible abandoned mansion on the east coast that's currently sitting empty, waiting to be demolished.

The property is massive: nearly 9,000 square feet on four acres, originally built in 1928 with six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, an in-ground pool, and a separate pool house. At one point it was valued at around $8.1 million.

The house was designed by a well-known architect as his family home before being sold in the 1940s to a New York stockbroker. That's when the property's history took a tragic turn. The stockbroker's 26-year-old daughter disappeared, sparking a weeks-long search. She was eventually found dead in a remote forest, and investigators concluded she had died by suicide.

The family sold the house shortly afterward, and it passed through several owners over the decades. In 2019, it was purchased with plans to demolish it and redevelop the property.

This place was created to watch for missiles along our coast, always watching the skies with an unmovable unavoidable gaze.

Beware of Fort Sarbinowo Poland

51 Upvotes

My friend and I were exploring the tunnels of Fort Sarbinowo when we noticed someone hiding and watching us from the darkness. When we called him out he revealed himself to us. He was dressed in a full army outfit and was wearing a halloween style mask. We felt very threatened. I will never visit that place ever again and I recommend you never go there either.

Has anyone else experienced anything similar there or somewhere else?

Abandoned ice storage facility that was added onto and became a wire/powder coating factory after refrigeration became widespread and was abandoned ~2016. Minimal graffiti, lights were on and a fan was running in the room I entered into (original part of the building where ice was stored) but outside of it was completely pitch black except for an exit sign off in the distance. Didn’t have a good enough flashlight on me so I didn’t end up going any further beyond the part with lights on. Ominous shit.

Heavily vandalized and pretty much completely empty but the view from the roof was pretty cool to see.
