When the Open Space Insitute bought these lands in 1994, these buildings where still standing, but where collapsing. Now they have largely all collapsed in on themselves. I don't know if they could have been saved, but it's kind of sad to see history just devolving back to woods.

From the NL Industries Tailing Pile Road ....

There is a 450 acre man-lake up at the Tahawus Tract, known as Henderson Lake, with campsites around it. It is where the Hudson River has been damed up.

This picture gives you a more realistic view of what the tailings pile road looks like, when your not trying to make everything look all purty.

Again, taken from the road up the tailings pile.
