Take a look inside the McNeal Mansion, an abandoned 10,000-square-foot home from the 1800s that nature is reclaiming
It was during a trip to a test run of the restaurant concept that local photographer Richard Lewis said he was first intrigued by the historic property.When developers opened up a bar and restaurant on the deck to raise some money for the restoration, Lewis visited with his wife and spotted the mansion from where they were sitting.
"He said that a historian had come and taken photos of it on their cell phone, but didn't even want to go inside," Lewis told Insider."Since he knew I was insured, he said if I could sign a liability waiver he would give me free access to the place. I was allowed to go in there and spend as much time as I wanted taking photos, as long as I shared those images with the city and the Burlington County Historical Society.
"The McNeal mansion is a stone building, so structurally it's relatively sound," he said."In a lot of other abandoned buildings with wood frames, I won't step where there's just floor out of fear I'll fall through it." "When you share your images on social media, you're automatically identified with what they call the 'urban ex' crowd," he told Insider."I'm big on getting permission, and by doing so you get a good reputation for the work that you do. You get to the point where people come to you and ask you to photograph places."
