Abandoned Home - Possible Daycare Or Group Home?

[@JPVideos81]

Don't forget to like this video, its free & only takes a second.

[@drshoe8744]

JPVideos What you have here and next door are two homes that were built in the 50s, but this one was being used as a daycare up until they found that it was full of Asbestos, and thus abandoned.

[@zigprof]

JPVideos done!!!

[@christophercoleman3980]

it looks a freaish huge daycare center

[@ToniHunterOne]

Hi JP, I'm so new to your channel I don't know what your actual first name is. Okay so this is the fourth of your vids I'm watching. Question this house and the cool house next door with the sunken "vat" in the floor have holes punched in the walls all over. Am I right in assuming someone stripped the copper wire out of this house and the other?

[@ToniHunterOne]

Luiza, what does: JPVideos done!!! , mean?

[@baragermyrna579]

Thanks for going slow enough I could actually see things and not get dizzy. Also, thanks for speaking loud enough and clearly enough to be understood and not cursing. Much appreciated.

[@JPVideos81]

You're welcome

[@paulawhite2546]

He's the best at that!

[@sydneybaker9303]

1960's vintage. I had bathrooms similar in my house built in '63. This place looks extremely expensive to operate, it is so large. I bet this place flooded at one point and the property was abandoned due to expense of reworking the damage.

[@JPVideos81]

I have the same thoughts

[@buttercupbeka4344]

Watched both videos and I prefer the other home, it's definitely my cup of tea!! I can see myself living there in luxury with the gorgeous furniture from that abandoned resort. As for the round well-thingie in the front foyer... I'd make it into a beautiful sparkly fountain. Yesiree... in a heartbeat!!!

[@bonniebrown6960]

I was dreaming of that too . I'd love to go back and live in that ear too . I miss it , but I was just a little girl at that time too . lol !! I didn't know about paying bills and responsibilities back then either . But they were both beautiful houses back in their day .

[@madamebutterfly851]

That giant boiler looking thing is actually part of a luxury sauna system called enviornmental habitat made by Koehler and very trendy in the 70s. Not sure where the actual enclosure was but it simulates rain, wind and steam. I guess they were over 20k in the 70s. They are found in a lot of luxury homes built then. Very cool find!

[@kanilees]

I've already seen the 2nd video with the other huge house, and I'll pick 'this' one. It seems like it would be a little more manageable. Besides, that big deep tub thing in the other house kinda creeped me out.

[@SleepyTimePuppy]

lol. I felt creeped out by this one. IDK why. Just weird vibes.

[@jazlynhahn6924]

The other house with the round thing Reminds me of the ring.

[@coleenmarriott724]

Would love to know who the architect was for both of these houses. Definitely had to be the same person. I love there layouts though. Very interesting and different.

[@katzy43]

@@SleepyTimePuppy I felt the same. I wouldn't want the first one either. Creepy houses.

[@bonniebrown6960]

@@coleenmarriott724 , I would love to know who built them too . When I seen the hot tub in the other house .... it made me think about Elvis Presley's daddy Vernon had one of those hot tubs in his house. I believe they said it was in Vernon's bedroom ? They say it was or still is real deep too . But I've never seen one right as you walk into a house . Maybe it was added later in the 70's ? Who knows ? lol , but I like the 2nd house better. They were once both beautiful houses back in their day .

[@2lilangelwingz]

This house is just beautiful. The huge stone fireplace one the 1st level is identical to the fireplace in my house. It's just amazing!!! Love these vids thanks for the post

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks lil angel

[@cleo2you1]

Definitely built or remodeled in the early 70s! This house has also been stripped of a lot of its design elements, not as bad as the one next door, but never the less the same person, people or company has stripped both houses. This house would have been really nice in it's day!

[@bonniebrown6960]

I think they were built properly in the 50's or 60's . I remember seeing some of this back then . I'm sure people could go back and watch movie's made that far back and they would be able to see some similarities to these fireplaces , bathrooms , kitchens, windows, and the wallpaper too . I love that ear !

[@TGombar]

That Kohler Habitat Evironmental Enclosure is to die for. I wonder if the unit still works.

[@CheapestGamer]

You guys ever look around on Stafford Ave in Scranton? Just past the post office on the opposite side of the road from the PA American Water center there used to be some stone/brick shells from I guess old houses up there. Not sure if they're still back there in the weeds or not. Plus at the end of Stafford where Mountain View nursing home is there's a closed off section of I guess the same street with some pavement still visible if you climb over the rocks/dirt they put in the way there. You can see Skyview apartments off in the distance through there.

[@giniwalters8401]

Great find Jay!!! This is a nice house!!! Not sure which one I like best!!! They both have own uniqueness!!! Wonderful job Jay!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@NoGenieinBottle]

I liked this house better than the second. Thank You for your fine videography. As I enjoy your complete filming of the properties; I appreciate the time you take.

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much

[@image0368]

This house was one of the Ahnert sons who went on to manage Fernwood into the early 90s. Once the resort was sold out of the family, this home was used to house housekeeping staff, most of whom were from South America. They came alone with their children in tow--you are seeing the daycare elements here. What must've been gone before your visit was the single building of hotel rooms that exclusively housed resort employees. And obviously the other 2 Ahnert houses.

[@scarymsmary]

This comment should be pinned to the top. Thanks for the history!

[@dixiechampagne2892]

The last place I lived had those mint-green fixtures. Loved em!

[@journeywithjay]

Pretty impressive place!! I've never seen an indoor sauna like that before. If that was 20k in the 70s it's probably around 50k today.

[@JPVideos81]

Some crazy $$$ was put into this place.

[@laurakershaw]

I love that sauna and cold plunge! Amazing!

[@abbysapples1225]

Excellent find, thanks for taking us with you. :) Looks like a place where Mom and Pa can relax, while their kids are being taking care of. :)

[@abbysapples1225]

Its a shame it is left to rot.

[@abbysapples1225]

My guess is. It was a relaxing place to go. Then one day mold took over. Maybe the mold came in from the fire wood they had down in the basement. In my Neighborhood there is a nice brick house, with a nice family. Their home became a victim to mold. They moved out and the place was placed onto the market. Someone bought it, and gutted the entire home. Even knocked down two small brick builds on the lot. Whoever is rebuild the house in my "hood", their spending tens of thousands to save the home. Maybe, just maybe that happened here.....and they gave up or ran out of funds.

[@oldisgood2587]

My children were born in the 80's and this place has 80's written all over it. It looks like a daycare center and it seems that they knew what they were doing. Great camera work.

[@JPVideos81]

Thats my first thought as well.

[@Stubahn]

This appears or has the feel like it's the "business end" of the private owner residence next door. Definitely the Child Daycare and/or private primary school as you suggested. One section serving as living quarters for employee teachers/care givers. Both homes are definitely custom builds, last inhabitants second owners. Solid cedar wood closets, real marble tiles/tops, high-end spa/saunas at each location were part of the same contractor doing custom builds on-spec. Utilizing this one as the revenue producing (tax reducing) property. Bottomline - cash cow enabling (free) private residence next door, income, tax incentives.

[@dusko.9910]

FOR SOME REASON, BOTH OF THESE HOUSES REMIND ME OF FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT???....NOT SURE WHY , BUT I LIVE 1 BLOCK AWAY FROM THE DANA THOMAS HOUSE THAT WAS BUILT BY HIM...IT'S AMAZING!!

[@dawnsoldfashionedlife]

In Illinois?

[@teenapittman4241]

That's exactly what I think too. If not Frank Lloyd Wright, maybe another designer with a little more dramatic flair. Both houses have that 'designer' feel.

[@redeemed88inchrist59]

I live in Wichita, KS, and he built a famous home here; this is a link to the website: flwrightwichita.org

[@AndreaCuster]

I live not that far (in MD) from Frank Lloyd Wright's "Falling Water" house in PA... super amazing architect!!!!

[@bonniebrown6960]

That's what I was just thinking too...!! Frank Lloyd Wright houses, especially the 1st house.

[@elainearchibald9020]

Very big place! I would love to have that sauna/tub/spa! Seems that it was marble tile too! Love it! TFS

[@Tampa3]

Its quite easy to find out the reasons they are abandoned. I just think the advice of counsel or the owners, you choose not to share that info with us. Its quite easy to find ownership info, death records, arrest records, and archived news about the place. County property appraisers website would be a start even without an address you can search by map parcel, then a site like BeenVerified can pull in the family members social media profiles, phone numbers, arrests/prison records, google can pull in archived news stories, county website can show past mortgage status, etc... I just think having the full picture would be more satisfying. But to be safe, you gotta do what you gotta do.

[@JPVideos81]

I never said i couldn't find info on these properties. I research every location i film so i am aware of my resources. As you mentioned, for privacy reasons and for certain circumstances, i choose not to share certain things. Obviously more info makes for a better video but sometimes too much info can create more problems. In every video i do though, i focus on showing the life they lived and share info when i can.

[@rebeccaoden8519]

Impressive. I can't chose between both houses in either video. Both were unique. Both can have awesome possibilities!

[@annebell7274]

OMG what a place. I would have been devastated having to walk away from this 🌿🌹🌿

[@Royaltyblue1212]

Beautiful home still have good bonds something I don't fixing it up and calling it home. Great find

[@jimren5638]

Yeah a group home or day care of some sort. That environmental system was amazing!

[@bebeautiful6613]

It blows my mind that there was no junk like clothes, furniture dishes... absolutely nothing! In either house. Most abandoned houses have all kinds of junk in them 🤔 great finds 👍

[@JPVideos81]

Guess they cleaned it out before walking away.

[@DinkyEarnshaw13]

There we're definately children in there at some point (the tot minder sticker tells me that) but maybe it was a women's shelter or something? Pretty cool no matter what it was.

[@musicfanhawk4523]

My first thought seeing the intro was elementary school-- that style looks like one I went to in Wisconsin. All the large windows floor to ceiling would of made for a very drafty cold house. All I can say about the sun tub and jacuzzi room is how neat!!! Never seen such a thing as that walk in sun/ sauna/ breeze tub.. Very interesting. This place would of been costly to heat and maintain that's for sure. I couldn't of lived in this, too open and no cozy areas, the#2 house would be ok, a bit of a warmer feel. Both very intriguing.

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

[@susankonitski7564]

Both of these videos are fantastic. Wow, both right next to each other. Massive homes for single story. Thanks

[@JPVideos81]

You're very welcome

[@jeffgrantMEDIA]

Great find man! That place just kept on going.

[@JPVideos81]

I was shocked how big it was.

[@caseysatterfield5876]

Yeah it was a modern and 60,s 70,s and 75,s

[@garter012]

Wow these houses are amazing. ..I think though I would pick the next house..I would get rid of the hot tub or what ever that was near the entrance..That Kitchen was amazing. that house has so many unique qualities to it. you could fit two or three families in it and never see each other,,except for meals. You two are awesome . Look forward to discovering more amazing homes along with you!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much Terri. Lets get this house and move in haha.

[@adventuresofohana1716]

I agree those are probably two of the best I've seen so far.

[@teraeverett5150]

OMFG!!! I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH TUB!!!

[@JPVideos81]

Its pretty awesome, did you see the one in the next house? Its the video tagged in this one.

[@teraeverett5150]

JPVideos I'm not sure. I saw one with a huge tub u could lay in which I fell in love with as well as one that had like a round oddly deep hot tub when u first walked in

[@teraeverett5150]

JPVideos I was curious where they were bc I was looking up abandoned places in Oklahoma which is where I'm located and somehow stumbled upon your video, glad I did though😉

[@JPVideos81]

Glad you found them too

[@CheapestGamer]

I find it funny that it's just that wide open and not boarded up at all.

[@JPVideos81]

Next house is the same exact way. That video will be out on Thursday.

[@chellebainbridge130]

The habitat is a master bath system like a sauna.... I saw one when i was little at a friends house they had bought from some rich family estate. Thiers had mist and steam and rain and heat. I would love to own this place!!!! super amazing great find thank you for sharing love your channel!!!!

[@JPVideos81]

You're welcome

[@rosemarykasper4001]

I prefer this house over the second one, at least if it was remodeled back to a single family! Not as gaudy as the second house, and I love all of the wood and windows! Thanks for sharing!

[@paulawhite2546]

Not me. Go big or go home! I loved the other one. Of course, If need to win a lottery.

[@caseysatterfield5876]

I like the other one this one gives me a bad vibe like ghosts and supernatural stuff it’s creepy

[@HLSaily]

Both structures are amazing but I LOVE the other one. It had the more unique and original design and plenty quirky unusual elements throughout. You go me hooked on your videos now after having randomly coming across the video of the other house. And you're very respectful of the homes which makes it so much easier to really get into the videos! Can't wait to watch more!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks so much for watching. Check my abandoned remains playlist for more videos.

[@JesseJames2507]

wow thats a crazy place i wonder if it was a hotel at some point or half way house with all the chairs in that one room i got a cult vibe going on as well as all the storage and rooms

[@JPVideos81]

Something was definitely going on there.

[@nicolelovell9320]

I wandered the same thing if its a cult or church with next house then this one, watched backwards, kids in one house and adults in the other.

[@lorenrobertson8039]

I get a kid porn vibe from this one. It creeps me out big time.

[@BrandyD1777]

I got same vibe...cult....like polygamist group

[@laurencliver6452]

That habitat is pretty amazing.

[@dixiechampagne2892]

I like the plunge and sauna (and the kitchen) in the 2nd one, I like this better as an investment. One wing for boarders, one all for myself

[@JPVideos81]

Good idea

[@neenahg5269]

Looks like it may have been a home then renovated to be a daycare (?) if I were to live in one of those houses I choose the 2nd house. Thanks for the great video!

[@jillurbaniak7766]

I love both houses and can't decide which I like better!

[@JPVideos81]

Take both lol

[@hamiltonmt]

What an absolutely wonderful setting! Both are pretty nice places but I like the house next door better. Thanks for sharing!

[@JPVideos81]

I like that one too

[@novaska69]

A house that was transformed into something other than a residence. The one policy makes me think not a daycare.."children under 13 must be with a parent or guardian" The window with a wall behind it, former exterior window, that they didn't bother to remove and make the addition appear smooth. The room you found in the garage, a other cedar lined room ( protects against moths eating wool clothes). Cedar is pretty expensive and usually suanas were lined in pine. No fire in that florescent fixture ( same room) a bad ballast in need of replacement. The white walk in closet, how close was that to the kitchen? Two benches facing each other..just needed a table between them for a breakfast nook. Thinking this was walled off to create the closet. The one room you walked into, (after the mirrored doors) I at first a boiler for heating. But wow! The other house was much nicer, imo.

[@StarrB1924]

This was impressive. so very large and it was hard to know that until you videoed it from the backside! I must say I wish you could explain a little more as to what direction you are going. Like "leaving what we think is the master bed & bath and turning left to continue down the hall. I do though absolutely love this stuff. I thought I was the only one foolish enough to go into an abandoned house with my camera! I really like the basements when you go into them. In Florida, you don't really see those at all. this looked like it had been gone through and the sheetrock has been taken for use someplace else, especially when the nails are there with sheetrock paper on them! I was impressed that there was so much spray foam insulation! They were doing a good job or someone had a grand time taking the stuff off and using it in another home. Are you ever able to get a permit to do some demo and get some of the tile & granet or light fixtures to salvage?

[@JPVideos81]

I will try and keep that in mind in future videos. The basement appeared to have been flooded. Thats why all the sheetrock was removed. There was some mold down there.

[@StarrB1924]

Well, never the less I just enjoy so much the stuff you do! Wish I could go with you! Keep up the good work and enjoy it as well!

[@sandraquinn8969]

Wow. This house was amazing.

[@AndreaBrittonsixxace74]

The certificates and plastic sorters on the wall gives it a medical vibe. It's too open for a cult or a rehab center, because glass doors can easily be broken in order to get out and for outsiders to see inside. The Habitat and the way it is set up don't make me think cult or rehab either, both of which don't tend to usually provide that kind of luxury. I think it was some kind of in home dementia care facility. The place is really open, which keeps the patients from feeling like they're locked up. A doctor would usually be on site for medical emergencies (perhaps the person that ran it and lived in the house next door). Seniors with dementia are often given toys and activities that are similar to children's activities and toys.

[@LADYJUSTICE50]

JP I googled the Habitat K-60 series you called off. I found one made by Kohler that sold for approximately $20,000.- back in 1978. That is some nice little unit. A sunroom/for tanning, rain shower head/hand held, and steam/sauna. Also very nice speaker system with built in radio/cassette player stereo a attached. Amber lights for ambience as well as warm breeze vents in ceiling for that "tropical" feel. We didn't see the front. It's called an environmental booth that simulates the elements for the weary worker who comes home exhausted. I honestly don't know anyone who could have afforded this thing!! There is also a house in Sturgis Michigan that has one inside. The house has been vacant for several years but is on the market for $335,000 -. It was over 5,000 sq. Ft. Came completely furnished. Had inground pool with slide and had several of the exact same elements as that house you're walking through! MCM 70's - at least they knew as of 78'! Would like to email the link so you can view this house. As well as the info surrounding the Habitat K60 environmental unit. Is there any way to do that? Thank you!

[@JPVideos81]

I researched it myself when i found out the name. Thats why i listed the year, sale price and settings in the video.

[@bonniemartin9697]

JP, I had an in home daycare in Southern Illinois. That looks very much like a daycare set up. Each room was for different ages, the "library" room was most likely for after school children to do their homework.

[@JPVideos81]

[@sandrawallder9247]

[@michellecrippen2966]

Hard to choose favorite of the two. Both had great elements. The kitchen in the second and the elements bathroom in the first. Such a shame they both set empty but couldn’t imagine the cost of fixing either. Great finds!!! You’ve got a new sub. Keep them coming!!!

[@stephyweaver8058]

New subscriber here! I've been devouring your videos like crazy, and am really enjoying them. :) I would take the other house for sure. I run my own business that takes up a lot of space, and the basement would be perfect! Especially the access to the garage to more easily schlep my products. lol The living space itself appealed to me more too. Both are pretty amazing. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@JPVideos81]

Thanks stephanie

[@lyndsayquilter5389]

I will take house 2 with the addition of the jacuzzi tub and rain pod :) I think you are right on both counts - It looks like it was part daycare/part group home or commuinty center/part home. There is a whole lot going on in House 1 that it is very confused. Very cool though, but House 2 takes the cake.

[@caroleellis8637]

I loved the blossom tree out the front

[@cindymichaud7111]

Quite a good quality property, not the best construction & finishes but definitely very good quality. On a scale of 1 to 5, I'd give this a 4, maybe a little extra, but standard for its type. The closet you said looked like a sauna appeared to be a cedar closet. These have, for a couple hundred years, been used to protect good clothing as cedar was thought to repel moths & other pests (same for the house next door). I wondered what the ceiling heights were on the main floors and in the basement, perhaps 7'6"? The scattered HVAC definitely suggests additions. Have you checked municipal or county tax records? Using the address you may be able to access ownership and/or property description records either on line or at the government seat (ie., municipal or county; state if a territory). I would have been interested in the types of awards on the office wall (no names, or addresses, etc.). But it may have disclosed the type of professional managing the facility. Take care in those abandoned buildings and back yards cause you'll never know what you may stumble into. Nice Video, good work! from Cyndie on (Richard Cole's shared account)

[@rexoliver7780]

If the cedar wall covering has lost its scent-just very lightly sand it.The sanding allows the oil and odors to come out again.

[@Feisty_Elfgirl_5258]

I'm wondering if this house was converted into a church or religious type center with an attached daycare. With the giant room and all the chairs it would hold a nice sized crowd Also, if it was a church that wierd, sunken bath could be for full body baptism

[@jennikj225]

That is my guess. I've seen worship centers like that around here (rural Wisconsin), where a large house is converted into a religious center with daycare. Most of the time they are the religions that hold day long worship services and serve meals during the lunch "break". I had a cousin who went to a church like that when we were kids. They also held religious day camps in the summer. Very cult- like.

[@lisaflory1092]

My thought as well.

[@shadesofidaho]

I did not see a way to get out of that deep tub in the other video.

[@bonniebrown6960]

[@tuniabjc9659]

I like this house a lot and would love to have it to remodel and update it. This would be perfect to begin the world of love. along with the other one in this same area. Is it an entire neighborhood abandoned or just the two homes. TOO MANY properties are going to waste. and there are countless people with no homes. I'd love to see some sort of project happen in the nation to get access to these places and create them into homes, group home or even businesses. Makes me wonder what happens to everyone that lived in them. It's like being in a world with no humans.

The Kohler Habitat is fabulous and likely still works if hooked up. You should try to buy it from the owner. I bet you could get it for hardly nothing. I wanted one when they first came out.

[@HarleyBadger]

YES! You are the first person I have ever seen who even *knows* what a Habitat is. I LOVE them. You can see the larger one (the Kohler Environment) in the "glass bank penthouse" video from another UrbExer.

[@mysticswalk3086]

Go rescue it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn, then rent it to ppl! FANTASTIC!

I am wondering it could be a treatment center physical therapy and such? Maybe? Another great find You guys very clean no graffiti and it's saleable. If only I have all the money in the world I would convert it to apartments duplexes.

[@melissawo4672]

I like the one bathroom in this house and the kitchen in the other house I like both houses but this one seems more open to me

[@Hello-ye2bi]

The tiles are similar to the blue-green ones nextdoor. The artwork is horrendous to say the least. This was a home turned into a living facility for children (as a guess). Although the properties date from the same era, I almost guarantee they had the same owners.also note the baker's racks in the second house.

Super nice. I'm torn between these two houses, I like this one better for the super nice bathroom, the other one better for the awesome kitchen. I'd like to check them out myself.

[@estherl2407]

I was the other video first and choose it over this, kitchen did it for me. This house has a group home with a community center feel to me

[@1028dianemarie]

Saw the other House. Same thing went on here ....holes punched into walls and some walls completely taken down. Somebody was looking for something. And what is really weird is the same tyvek jumpsuits are all hung up in a row in both houses. Same green tiles as well. I get the feeling the daycare was a cover for some other nefarious goings-on

@15:44..that big tank thing..says Habiat...could this be something in the way of sound/light depevration chamber ?? or an underground shelter ???

[@JPVideos81]

It was a multi sensory pod.

Great explore

Thanks Joey

[@jennymorris193]

Love the bathrooms ❤️

[@JPVideos81]

Me too, very retro

[@hopemstone8676]

I agree with the other about the toxic mold and you should wear masks...that probably accounts for the white suits....the foam insulation was probably to stop water seeping in...also it did remind me of a church with the speakers then the garage with all that seating and booths...I love the double bath tub and the atrium and the library and the pink blossoing trees...but too much mold in the house...a little worrisome....stay safe

Thanks hope

nice fireplace.the wood really look healthy yet at 11.00 on u video.

[@darlenemazurkiewicz2708]

This house appears to have been used as a school. Maybe a small day care as well. Remnants of paint, etc lead me to think that from the start. In order to turn this back into a home would be not only a lot more $, but years of work over the other house.

Somehing is off with this place i do not exactly what but it is definitely spread out and spacious makes you wonder how much the heat/hydro costs per month ? love the closets though

[@redneckbryon]

Definitely an amazing place, (WOW) is definitely not the word for this place. I wonder if this place was multiple additions over the years, since the basement appeared to be only under the front section, also would explain why the HVAC equipment was scattered throughout the main floor and not in the basement, I was surprised to see a lot of the copper remaining in this place but clearly some of it was cut.

[@JPVideos81]

My guess was multiple additions and surprisingly no graffiti at all.

[@redneckbryon]

JPVideos that's definitely unheard-of especially in an open house.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Hey JP, I can tell that At one time, the place was really nice, it looks like it could be a daycare facility. The colors look like it is straight out of the (70's).🤔🙄☺️. Someone with money should buy the place and fix it up, it would make someone A beautiful home. (Again) .☺️

[@djslyd]

The tree out front appears to be a Prunus Serrulata (Japanese Flowering Cherry). The house was most likely built for a Japanese family with some means! The windows are reminiscent of homes in Japan. What it became after it was a family home is anyone's guess. After viewing the video of the home next door, it may have been an upper middle class area in the 1950's catering to Japanese families.

[@sheilahughes1014]

Looks like a home converted to a care facility....both this and the house next door had to have been built in the 1950's. I grew up in a house built in 1960 and it had many of the same features.

[@Gravityfallsxbigcitygreens]

Great video ty

[@Kim_Berly-kq2hc]

[@bluegrassfan8426]

the green tile in this bathroom was the same as the green tile in the other house.

[@lorrie3497]
