woodworking and wood framing are pulling away from
walls and, in many cases, falling away. The infrastructure
of the physical plant is permeated with extensive amounts
of moisture leaking in from a failing roof (that was finally
replaced several years ago), leaking pipes, and window
framing that is rotting and no longer air-tight. Even with
years and years of cosmetic cover-up with reapplied plaster
and ceiling treatments like sprayed on texture, treatments
are peeling away and falling because of the extensive
amount of moisture in the old plaster upon which it is
applied. Nothing works any more. The house is simply
disintegrating. Tile is falling off walls in the bathrooms and
mold throughout the house is staggering. In old Room 6
(northwest front corner room), the ceiling and wall plaster
has completely collapsed. The ceilings in both large sleeping
porches on floors two and three have completely collapsed.
