  • In this video I explored the abandoned Levi Tucker Scofield mansion in Cleveland, Ohio. This Victorian style mansion completely is off limits and there is no way to get in the building due to the city of Cleveland closing the mansion off with plexiglass.
    This mansion is falling apart but there are plans to restore the mansion to it's former self. This beautiful mansion is 123 years old.

    Sally from England 🙋🏻‍♀️🇬🇧 The door closing at 14.02 is an optical illusion caused by the door’s reflection in the mirror as you walked towards it, it never closed on its own.

      What mirror? All i saw was a a big ass hole in the wall and the door moving on its own, i saw no mirror... You can also see the carpet continue between the two studs, making it one continuous look through a hole in to another room. You're buggin' if you think that was a mirror.

If they do get to restore this place then it will look so beautiful like it once did. thank you for showing us round and it did look like that door through the huge hole in the wall had closed but maybe the way you move your camera at 14:00. Brilliant footage and i love how you stay quiet in these older places as you can actually catch EVP's at times. Awesome ... Peace and love and stay safe out there Mr Hill xx

    I'm surprised the City of Cleveland didn't offer to buy this when it closed in 1990, knowing it was the home of the famous Architect, Scofield. It's crazy to see how just 32yrs can completely destroy a home if it's not kept up on. It also makes me feel old as dirt! This place closed down my Senior year in high school!

    When you say they have closed the building off with plexiglass, my first image was this massive overturned clear mixing bowl covering the property. Or something like "The Dome".
    Second image in my mind's eye was you tunneling underground like a mole to get under the aforementioned dome because of it being completely off limits.
    Then I came to the conclusion, you probably went to get this wonderful footage before the massive dome was lowered into place.
    Either way, thank you for this excellent and professional production of something we would otherwise probably never get to see.

    Why not get artist glass lehr kiln for basement, make glass garden menagerie for sale from recycled city glass to finance rebuilding. Do black light uranium glass points exterior. Find old iron cast molds in serviceways around old foundry sites. Fill with blown glass instead. Blow out the interior paint. Take doors back to wood. Do something. Weather tight with blown waste glass. Exterior long wall, back lit, weddings on summer lawn. Roy Orbison nights. Summer retro music nights. Seasonal banners for next events. Kiln can be semipermanent mortar, do art glass, security glass block, etc. Sells. Chain link inventory outside and then sell by drive by. Post cell number.
