"It would cost millions just to stabilize it, never mind make it livable. As much as I'd hate to see it go, at this point it has to go. As it stands, the abandoned castle (and the multi-storey 1920s wing next door) are decrepit and bringing down the property values and overall character of the neighborhood. There are some gorgeous little homes nearby that have been looking at this mess since 1979. Knock it down already and make it a park, which is sorely needed in this part of Staten Island."?FerryBoi [A Fairy Tale Palace Ages Unhappily Ever After on Staten Island]
