as they say...money can't by taste!

I agree... what a lack of taste. And also money can't buy everything.

It looks like an abandoned church or something. Thanks for posting though, I love stuff like this.

This is sort of a morbid interest of mine. I actually saw this website not too long ago.
Click the link - tons more pics and an interesting story.

Not really my taste, but if someone offered that to me for free, I would still take it .

Just Tyson's place, or abandoned places in general?

You don't know about Mitch's rabid obsession with Mike Tyson?
I agree with Mitch though, abandoned stuff has always fascinated me. There's an old abandoned tuburculosis hospital from the 20's or 30's not too far from where I live that's pretty interesting. Unfortunately douchebags had to go in and vandalize/spraypaint garbage all over it. I think it's considered one of the most haunted places in the world. Not that I believe any of that stuff, but it'd still give me the creeps. Unfortunately it's become sort of a gimmick (it's privately owned now) and they give tours, especially on Halloween.

Sorry for the sidetrack, but I've always found abandoned stuff like this pretty interesting.

Abandoned places in general, specifically old hospitals, both psychiatric and medical. I've always wanted to do an exploration of my own, but none of my friends share my interest and I'll be damned if I'm going into an old structure by myself (the closest I've come is going to the abandoned psych ward/floor in the hospital at which I volunteer...and it still gave me the heebyjeebies).
This site is pretty crappy, but I still find it interesting:

The decor was probably the newest "in" style or whatever when he was living there in the 90's.

For -

It's funny to look at
Another place which could shine if restored and furnished with good taste carpeting and furniture
Could be used for a luxury secluded hotel/resort

Against -

A best off of bad taste

Verdict

To be saved asap, before douchbags take "care" of it
