My older cousin spent the better part of his preteen/teenage life here, I remember going to visit him a bunch of times.

He didn’t grow into a better person from this place, in fact, I’d say It helped him be the man he is today.

The Charles Hickey old Youth Detention Center is being demolished. Just a few pics of what is there now before it is gone.

I can’t find much on this. Only that certain buildings are being demolished. I doubt the place is going anywhere.

The buildings in the photos are being demoed. I attended a pre bid there last month. That is when I took the pictures. Everything but the church is going to be leveled

Yes that is always done on commercial sites. They discuss specs and procedures and the contractor need to assess the facility

Misleading af. They're demoing some building for new construction. The facility is multiple buildings.
These images are from a structure nearby Chesapeake Treatment Center which is on the grounds.

These are all being demoed. The ground is being backfilled to match the existing landscape. A few of the buildings have already been done. Plans are available to the public. This is the old Hickey School that is not behind the fences. As of right now, there are no plans for new construction
