Greytown, Wairarapa, NZ, April 2012: The long-derelict former Greytown Hospital is up for sale. Buildings on the historic 1.5 hectare site date back to 1890 and followed the old Florence Nightingale open-ward plan. Most of the asbestos has now been removed and the main building earthquake strengthened. The hospital (which closed in 1995) had originally been planned to get revamped into a function and accomodation complex. The current owners though have now decided to sell- it could be yours for around 600 grand… I jumped the fence for a closer look/shoot and out of curiosity tried the front door- it opened- inviting me in for a look inside… Panasonic Lumix FH20
Nice Find.
Nice shame there’s nothing of it’s former use lying around
You should see it now! We were recently invited inside the red brick building in your top photo. It is going to be fabulous! The new owner is spending a lot of money renovating the entire building. It’s going to be beautiful.
