UFO housing of the future... NOT!


Here is an interesting link to pictures of an odd housing development on the North Coast on the way to the beach.

According to a posting it is "an abandoned resort in Sanjhih on the north coast of Taiwan that locals call 'UFO House.' It has been abandoned for more than 20 years - most likely the damage to the buildings has been caused by the strong winds of the summer typhoon season."

The article speculates on reasons for it being abandoned and about construction concerns. It also has some great photos which almost seem like drawings rather than pictures.

These were a project that began in the 1960's but never finished due to mysterious deaths that occured during construction. The structures were also to be demolished, but the mysteries continue with more deaths during demolition. All aspects of the project have been abandoned and continue to be shrouded in mystery and superstition. They are relegated to stand there, slowly being dismantled by the sea and air.
