Located in Liberty, NY, Grossinger's was once an upscale retreat for the wealthy. The resort featured ice skating, swimming, and fine dining and attracted numerous celebrity guests. Since closing its doors nearly 35 years ago, the resort has remained abandoned and untouched in the New York countryside.
The resort's pool, once the grand centerpiece of the building, is now filled with moss and dirt instead of crystal-clear water.
Rows of intricate room keys have rusted over the years, but are still preserved in time.
Well-off women once filled the salon's chairs, perfecting their blowouts before a fancy dinner or dance at the resort.
If the clothing abandoned in Grossinger's looks a little out of style, that's because the resort shut its doors in 1986.
Hostess Jennie Grossinger’s bed melts into what’s left of the carpeting in her former room inside the Joy Cottage. Every Saturday, Grossinger’s most honored guests—legends like singer Eddie Fisher, actress Elizabeth Taylor, boxer Rocky Maciano and others—met for cocktails in this building before heading to the Terrace Room to socialize and entertain guests.
Trees have sprouted and grown through the court where tennis nets once stood.
Abandoned lounge chairs are literally frozen in time at the bottom of Grossinger's once-majestic pool.
These once luxe, monogrammed shower curtains now hide crumbling tile.
