Give us another video of New Jersey.
The d.o.d and keystone watch tower some other cool spots
There’s also walpak which is a whole abandoned town in sussux county
You said the Van Slyke Castle was built in the 1990s. WTF? You might want to do this over. You also pronounced Newark wrong.
It’s pronounced Nork
You need to research the history and pronunciation of the places you’re talking about. Many errors.
Slow down and take a breath, maybe pause between structure. Had to leave by fifth location.
This fucking guy talks like the longest run-on sentence ever made
Neat video! Some constructive criticisms: it’s pronounced "Wanna-kew" and the "Redding" railroad.
I knew Mercer Hospital would rank high. I was born there and grew up in that general area.
Coincidentally, I currently work for the healthcare system that took over Mercer Hospital, eventually selling it completely in 2013 as you correctly noted.
However, the new hospital that was built a couple years before was not in Hamilton. It was in Hopewell Township (basically Pennington NJ).
Neither is considered "far" from Trenton.
However, the new hospital is only accessible by car, and is directly off a highway. I don’t think you can even take public transportation to get there from Trenton.
Whereas the old Mercer Hospital was right in the middle of a residential area and used to see a lot of foot traffic. That was part of the reason why residents in that area complained about it closing.
Also Trenton had (and still has) two other hospitals within city limits, but Mercer always had a better reputation among them.
It was indeed an epic hospital, the only one many would go to when they had a choice.
Just some insight from a local.
🙂
FYI…pronounced Wah-nah-que
It’s wanaque and pronounced nork
Wanaque is pronounced Wah-NAH-kee, not Wanock. Also, Reading is pronounced Redding, not Reeding. Also, Newark has the emphasis on the first syllable, not the second: NEWerk, not NewARK.
Dude you got a lot of the history about the Essex county hospital wrong . The city of Newark never owned any of it for starters and overbrook was a total different hospital located in Verona NJ. Overbrook was also know as the Essex County Sanatorium and also owned and operated by the County of Essex. It closed in the early 80’s and the patients were transferred to the remaining wards of the Essex County hospital center just below the hill. The hospital in Belleville was used for tb patients and once TB was no longer a threat it was used for geriatric citizens of Essex County until the early 90’s . Two totally different hospitals for different uses located on opposite sides of the county. The county still operates a smaller hospital in cedar grove which was built in the mid to late 2000’s. All the remaining property was either turned into county parkland or sold to developers for residential housing in 2017
It’s pronounced "wan-a-q". Three syllables
lpl
That was supper interesting. Enjoyed it
Essex County Isolation Hospital is a gem of architecture, i got totally stuck . Best compliments from an Argentine viewer , from Argentina obviously
Learn to say the town and city right New yorker
Looking forward to part 2
Put the homeless in these abandoned structures
I used to deliver produce to #1 and #5, now I know why I haven’t in awhile now lol.
Not Newerk, Nerk.
Great video
Your speaking so fast. Your talking about so many interesting places, but can not understand much of your dialog!!! It seems very interesting… But can’t hear it all! I have good equipment so please don’t throw that back…I am being honest, I like your post / site!!! Do you have any other sites??? Maybe slow down into two separate sites…TY!
I’m sorry, but the name of the town Wanaque is pronounced “wan a cue”. Not wannock
Really reading railroad yeah let me read a book it’s not reading it’s reding railroad
How sad! In Europe, most of these beautiful places would have been preserved.
It’s pronounced red ding not reading mistakes and mispronunciations here in there
Dope!
Second part in New Jersey
I’ve seen that thing in Woodbridge on the train going to south Amboy u look exactly at it
#10 is pronounced Wanna q. #9 is location is pronounced Redding like the town in England. Interesting video and it is so sad that there are places left in decay.
Yeah. This is wrong. Newark never owned Belleville or cedar grove.
Mercer Hospital is closed???
Very interesting but I wish he would have spoken slower and made it a longer video. By the time I really looked at one place he was already onto the next one. ☹️
Wanaque is wan a q.
So there are no abandoned buildings In South Jersey? Just Newark and the surrounding areas?
You pronounced Wanaque wrong. Its pronounced "wanna QUE" Last syllable pronounced like the letter Q.
I also grew up in essex County and explored the shit out of the jail, Overbrook hospital and the tuberculosis hospital in cedar grove.
The railroad’s name is pronounced "Redding," not "Reeding!"
I’ve been so many places in New Jersey. Makes me sad that so many are completely gone. My friends and I (back in our late teens & early 20’s- I’m 32 now) used to go everywhere. Been to some places you mentioned and others you haven’t. Would love to see a part 2!! 💚
I always used to drive by Gingerbread Castle and never really cared enough to explore it. i dont know why i slept on it.
How do you do a film like this and you can’t even pronounce Wanaque?
Great list! In addition to the ones already mentioned, the first town is pronounced Wanakyoo not Wanak.
Hinchcliff is actually undergoing a multi million dollar renovation, which is what that picture with the mayor was probably highlighting.
I live right near that abandoned hospital
Are you from Delaware?
Number two was purchased by the jackals baseball team and will be used for their home games
Whoa slow down… I want to think about what you’re saying but you’re talking so fast. Just a little constructive criticism.
