    This is so hard to watch. Horrible. That beautiful facade just obliterated.

    Upsetting to watch. The buff brick building was the Snowden Building. The building next to it, was the Odd Fellows. I was in the Odd Fellows building about 10 years ago. It was dated, but structurally sound at that time. The Snowden Building's interior was really bad, since the roof had not been maintained. Appears nothing was saved from any of the facades. Sadly, many buildings in Connellsville have met the same fate. These buildings and there history are irreplaceable.

    Sad. I read or heard that there was a second old hospital abandoned in the area, does anyone know of this and it's possible location? Not the one next to the old nurse's home but a second one. Thanks in advance if you do.

      The hospital is in really bad shape. I think it’s next to be demolished. I have a video of it.

      Years and years of neglect those buildings were really unsafe. It is a shame that the hole town is like that. I missed the first building coming down but saw video of it. They tap it and it all came down at once.

      As unsafe as the buildings were, it would cost far more to try to save them, than it would to build all new buildings

      The town is pretty much abandoned and all the buildings are in really bad shape. Those buildings floors were all collapsed into the basement.

    No dust control. Hitting wires. Wrong attachment on the long reach excavator must have went to a cheap company.

      60yrs of neglect. Those buildings were dangerous. Roofs collapsed and all the floors fell in. Bricks started falling off the buildings into the street.
