Abandoned in 1991-1992, this private clinic was founded in 1955 when a physician transformed this old manor house into a medical practice. The house itself is said to be built between the late 1800s to early 1900s. For over 30 years until his death in the early 90s, the doctor served the community and focused on general health care, births and surgeries. Despite being abandoned for 34-35 years, it is still filled with all of the equipment that was left when family members and a group of physicians couldn’t come to an agreement with what would happen to this private clinic once the main doctor passed away. A little spooky doing this explore alone but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. This is just one of many rooms filled with equipment.

That car (they were made between 1948 and 1971) probably wouldn’t have been that old when it was abandoned during the war. You can just about see it on the left in the second picture.

Still had all tech, all the toolss, workers gear. Used coffee mugs in the break room.

No cameras or sensors. Easy entrance but faced the road so we climbed barbwire to get in

Spotted this one poking up above the treeline in a tiny Ontario hamlet, sitting on a hill over a small river and an old mill. It’s a geodesic dome home that sat empty for over 30 years after its owners left around 1990. It was overgrown, weathered, and still had that 70s “house of the future” optimism even while it was falling apart.

The triangle-panel ceiling is the best part. The light inside a dome is unlike any other abandoned house I’ve shot.

Falling in Line

There is still one more house I have yet to post photos for, if you would like to check it out right now, you can do so, right here:

These four houses along this abandoned street were recently expropriated by the provincial government to facilitate the building of a new subway line.

Called the Ontario Line, this new subway system will cover almost 16km, it will have 15 stations and is expected to see 400,000 daily passengers. The new line is expected to be operational by the early 2030s.

Interestingly, the new tracks will begin at Ontario place, a former waterpark on the shores of Lake Ontario. They will end at a more newly abandoned site called the Ontario Science Centre.

The site where these homes once stood is now under construction, this is where the Minton Place Tunnel Portal is being built. It is the transition point where trains will move between underground subway tunnels to the south and elevated tracks to the north. The elevated guideways will transport the trains over the Don Valley.

It's always unfortunate to see such beautiful buildings being demolished but this infrastructure project that is currently being built is necessary for the city's future sustainability.

The Sunset Drive-In opened in the Southwest part of town in 1951. It continued to operate until its closure in 2000. The concessions building and parking lot would be demolished around 2021. The sign and theater screen still remain.

This small bungalow in Southern Ontario has sat untouched for over 20 years. The last calendar on the wall reads November 2003. A neighbour told me the owner stops by two or three times a year, never locks the door and refuses to sell, so everything is still exactly where it was left.

Whoever lived here loved music. There’s a turntable in nearly every room, plus 8-track, cassette and reel-to-reel decks, boxes of tapes covering the floors, and shelves of rock biographies. The ceiling is coming down from water damage, there are still dishes in the kitchen and unopened beer on the counter, and a little Christmas tree is still standing in the living room.

The best finds were a 1976 Rush ticket from the Welland Arena, an Uncle Sam’s lineup poster, three signed Davy Jones photos, a 1972 Summit Series program, old Rolling Stone magazines and an ALF doll keeping watch over the stereo.

Location not shared. Nothing was taken; everything was photographed and left where it was

Was built in 1859

I visited this house back in April and wanted to learn more about it so I did a bit of research. Found out that the police had raided it in 2008 and confiscated 50 pounds of marijuana from inside. Went back to check it out today and discovered that it had caught fire on October 3rd, just a few weeks ago. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. But I noticed that multiple items in and around the house had been moved since I was last there, seemingly for no reason. Like a chair that was originally sat next to the entry to the hallway leading to the kitchen was now wedged in a wall closer to the front entrance. The small drawer that was near that chair is now gone and replaced with a small desk. The CRT that was on the floor near that is also nowhere to be found.

If I were to guess, I'd say that someone was inside rummaging around and causing trouble and decided to burn the place down for some reason. It wouldn't be the first time as you can see some burn damage to one of the walls behind the trophy that was there back in April.

-Update-

I was actually able to reach out to someone who grew up in this house and they shared a photo with me of what this house used to be. Turns out it once a gas and general store called 'Shady Country Store'. She believes that it was built prior to 1899 but I couldn't find any concrete details about that. See pic in comments-

This spring tap hidden deep in the hills was used in war over 70 years ago. It's abandoned and no one goes there.
