The reason no one has moved in and they've not torn it down is the whole site is one of the most polluted places. They kept lots of waste chemicals in tanks underground which leaked and seeped into the ground. The site is monitored to this day by the EPA.

I think the leak was in the 1970s but knowing what these places and the super nasty chemicals they use I bet there were spills all the way to the 1990s.

Didn't Herd say in the video that they already had those sprinklers when he arrived for his first work day?

I think so. Meaning the TCE leak must have been before he joined.

Would be nice to think Bil saved those Pets and other bits and bobs.

Sad to see things end up like this, the march of time and all that.. I do hope Bill saved those Pets and other items.
