The Town That Time Forgot

Traveling through Sullivan County last week, we came upon the town of Mountaindale: Population 0. Nah, I don’t know what the population is, but Mountaindale looked like a ghost town. Oddly enough, it also looked as if the shop fronts have been restored. It feels like a movie set or like it’s waiting for something to happen.

Perhaps Mountaindale is a hopping place during the summer months, but on a winter’s weekday it looked abandoned. Someone is trying to bring this little town back. There is evidence of an art community, yoga and anti-frackers. None of them were around the day we swung by.

There are quite a few bungalow colonies near the town, some abandoned and many in use. It’s definitely something to check into once summer is on the horizon.

Mountain Dale, NY is about to make a comeback. My brother and I grew up in that little town and will soon be re-investing in it. The town was once a booming metropolis (in the 30’s thru 50’s) and has seen two rebirths since then. And is about to make another. There is a lot of history to that town if you do a little research. So keep your eye out. Change is gonna come!

I own a house right off main in mountaindale its a one room with loft. I have no money to finish it its right there. It prob would take 10000 to finish most of that is a well. The inside is close to finish I have 45000 in it but im willing to sell for half of what I have in it . My number is 8459852463. Its worth the look i dont want to sell but have no choice. Thank you
