I didn't venture out very far in the basement. I didn't have a flashlight and after taking as many pictures as I did often time using the flash, I didn't know how much battery I had left. It was pitch black down there. The sound of dripping water pretty evident and the black mold on the walls going down wasn't so inviting either. So I took these from the base of the stair case. If they have a open house before the school opens I will try to get some more pictures of the basement area.
Appears to be black mold.
The remaninig pictures are of what I took of the basement.

Legally speaking framing is still in a murky area of the law though there have been court cases in which framing has been seen as violation of copyright law. Many cases that were taken to court ended up settling out-of-court with the one doing the framing agreeing to cease framing and to just use a regular link to the other site.
