An Abandoned Mansion In NYC Raises Questions

The Home Has Been Decorated Through The Ages

The owners of this home probably lived here a long time, and the property was probably kept in the family from the ’30s all the way to the ’70s. This is evident in home’s interior design. Though many of the rooms reference Victorian Design, this photo of chairs pretty much shows design through all of the eras. There are bamboo chairs which mark the ’30s and ’40s art deco movement. There’s curved, ornate wood detailing showcasing Victorian style. There’s the bold colors of the ’50s and ’60s midcentury modern, and the mustard and brown-tones typical of ’70s style.

The House Is Not Immune To The Elements

In this stunning photo, we see a rocking horse. It was likely favored by one of the toddlers who frolicked around the home. The horse rests between two vintage couches that are deteriorating because the house is still subject to the elements. Though a curtain still covers the large window to the right, it’s not enough to stop the chilling New York winter from creeping into the home. The floor is covered with a sheet of snow, which reminds us that eventually, nature will take back the property unless someone steps in to shut it out.
