Re: Chimney Fun
From top to bottom this thing was bad in every since of the word:
(pictures are from left to right, 1-4)
  1. From roof level-- the chimney was boarded up (not disclosed).
  2. Attic view-- the chimney has sustained serious structural damage (and no liner)
  3. Inside view--
  4. Crawlspace view-- the flooring under the fireplace and hearth is ready to collapse.
This was a home that had been re-done from top to bottom (well with the exception of the roof and fireplace). Someone had bought this 1921 home and put about 45K of renovations into it.

My impression... the damn thing is haunted!! No joke!
