Looks like they'll be living the
highest profession in a shanty.

Most of
Livingston Manor is entirely infected with black mold - it can be seen and
smelled. As of a year ago, the only section inhabitable was a 2
story outbuilding off to the right of the main Manor/ It is only
this outbuilding that has been used for small courses for the last few
years. It was fixed up to be clean and one room serves as the dining
room and seats about 25 people. That's it.
The large lecture
hall, the entry hall, and all the rooms in the excutive area were saturated
with mold. The entire thing was sheeted off with plactic to prevent
the mold from infesting the air. Local workers were hired to clean
up thick sheets of slick black mold down in the lower levels (where people
used to do the siddhis). They wore boots, used chemicals and brooms
and scrapers, and 2 days later another sheet of black slime was growing
all over again. The big old dining halls were also sealed off, and when
you walked in there, you were hit with a huge stench of moldy air.
Same with trying to walk thru the main building. Many years of
unrepaired roof leaks and no heat caused this. They could not
get a C of O for the place. maybe that is changing, but I doubt
it.
Most of the other outbuildings have caved in and no one has removed
the debris. For 200 purusha to live there would take some
sturdy and brave souls. A person could get really sick
there.
