I have been unable to find any history or info on this place, not uncommon for where I live, but anyhow, I went and shot it today, and if any info is found it'll get posted.

The big mausoleum is kept locked and only able to enter by making an appointment, because it is being renovated to repair vandalism, I'll post the pics if I can get in

It saddens me to see headstones fallen over.
Now you can tear a building down, but you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down, but they have a value you can't see

I generally steer clear of cemeteries. I don't like taking pictures in them. I don't know why, just makes me feel bad like I'm disrespecting the dead or something. Looks like a really cool place though. That shot of the moss covered stairway is awesome.

Thanks, I guess I kinda think of it as honoring or respecting them, I am not trying to exploit or mock them, its more like saying "I see you and want to remind others you are here"

Yeah, I can see that. Honestly, I just don't like being in cemeteries period haha. I don't know why, I'm not really superstitious or anything. So I guess it's a good thing you're there taking pictures so I don't have to go :P
