Rest in peace ol Girl. I snuck through it one night with some buddies. I miss seeing her elegance when I would drive by. I hate seeing these old houses destroyed. The house had dual staircases that went up to the 2nd floor living room. The windows came down to almost floor level. In the attic, you could pull down a drop ladder that allowed you to walk out on the roof. It really was a beautiful house. There was a massive rock out Front that said “Prebe” the family it belonged to all those years ago.
Just thought I’d share some local history with y’all.


Old Brick House, Ladoga,Indiana​

Once, the largest home in the area, now just an abandoned hulk. This old brick farmhouse sits deteriorating in a soybean field near rural Ladoga, Indiana. A year ago I thought it might have been inhabited, now every window is broken, sad to see this once nice home being destroyed by man and nature.
Update: I went back to shoot this again recently and there was only a pile of bricks.........end of a sad story.

Damned shame some people think that destroying the old will make the new better. I’ve found that more often than not the old is and was much better than the new!

That’s a couple of hours north of where I’m at, would have loved to seen it in all its glory.
 

You guys should metal detect that site!!
Been all over it. I don’t remember anything significant popping up. And that was when it was still standing. I’m sure everything is really smeared out now.
