Love watching your videos! This is the Old Boys School. It closed less than 10 yrs ago. There are a lot of news documents of how a lot of the boys were abused & killed out there several years ago. The houses were used for employees.
The Buckhead Ridge Moose Lodge back in the day used to be called the Fin and Feather Bar. Okeechobee County shut down liquor sales at midnight and everyone would head out to Glades County to shut her down until 2am. Highway 78 was our route heading into Fort Myers and the old Lee Civic Center on 78 and 31. One of my most memorable concerts I saw there I was 15 and front row standing in front of Eddie Van Halen on the 5150 tour. I saw the Bon Jovi Slippery when Wet tour there as well.
I have seen Van Halen that year but it was at the Lakeland civic center in Lakeland, FL that was the very last time I have seen them in concert I even drove a 1957 plymouth to the concert that year
Those were houses for the prison workers, correctional officers and the warden's staff. I have a friend that was a assistant warden at one of the prisons here in FL and he verified that info with me. Looks alot like old air force base housing, lol
I am now on this video. ❤❤ I love your videos. So I work for a major medical laboratory and I go to Okeechobee every once in awhile and I actually had to come to this prison pre-covid, totally got lost. Finally found my way to this gate I actually was buzzed in to that guard shack. It was still open and operating only a few years ago, at least that section. I was wondering what those houses were on the way in. Thank you for clarifying that 👍👍 oh and I had to wait for the nurse to come from the other side of the campus. So wow, I didn't know they closed it down. I remember there was people living in the house around the bend as you were going toward the guard house section and what upset me was the fact that he had these dogs in very small cages...😢😢 So there were people living there up until just a few years ago. I wonder where they went
Love these so much! Though we do sometimes worry that someone might be lurking in these abandoned places, we know you’re being careful. So sorry you had to deal with that lady, but this one was (as always), superb!
@@Steve_6251 Steve, always awesome to have you here but appreciate you so much. Hope you had a happy weekend. We had a great time together yesterday much ahead, my friend.
Sometimes those abandoned homes and prisons still have running water and electricity for some reason..if the homeless people in Orlando, St. Augustine, Daytona etc see this video, they will commute over to okeechobee and pop a squat in those homes
I had to do some work in Moore Haven about 20 or 22 years ago, The only thing there at that time was a prison, a canal and a truck stop. The only hotel in town was closed.
LOVE this particular video more than a lot of others on You Tube who do the same thing.. not sure why, but, your videos just seem to be more entertaining to me and as I said, this one, in particular, is really good!
@@Nunofurdambiznez that’s a very big and huge compliment. I take to heart and really appreciate. There’s a lot of people out there making good quality content. Happy to hear that you enjoyed this one thank you so much. Hope you had a happy weekend.!
Yo Jay you missed a bunch of history for that place. It was the Okeechobee Youth Development Center. The sister campus of the Dozier School for Boys in Marianna. This school has it's own history of abuse as well.
Jay...I love this series. It inspires me to do more content like it in PCB. Really sorry a lady was rude, you handled it perfectly. Thanks for uploading!
ur vids have a chill vibe to them 👌🏼🙂💯 also I'm a natural wanderer myself and would've loved to come along on one of these ventures ✌🏼️😜 as for the houses, I've done time in FL myself and I do know that in many FL prisons the warden and other officers usually have housing onsite as well so that's what those houses could be 🤔
I just watched a new video from another TH-camr, Tim J Means Business, who did a feature on this place, and yours popped up next in my feed, so I had to check it out. He covered a lot, including a visit inside the prison. You might want to give it a look. I just subscribed and look forward to exploring more of your videos.
Hello there Jay! Abe here! So many years ago (appx.37 or 38 years ago) I used to travel from Miami to Immokalee to hang out with friends and would take Hwy 41 (Tamiami Trail) to Hwy 29 north to Immokalee. I would almost always travel at night or very early morning hours before sunrise and would pass what I remember to be a prison work camp probably low security, anyhow it always looked quite creepy with few lights and foggy,and surrounded by desolate swamp. After many years of not traveling in the area I later discovered the facility had been shut down and abandoned. I have a lingering curiosity of why it ended up abandoned and forgotten. Maybe you could look into it if you're ever in the area,it seems like a place and story that as they say would be right up your alley! Just so you can locate it travel along Hwy 29 between Copeland and Immokalee. Well take care! P.S. I'm an avid follower and love your channel!
My friend and i used to race MX in Clewiston many years ago. We stayed in Moore Haven. It was near the Courthouse, I think i caught a glimpse of the house when you were videoing there. Small world.
Tampa Jay videos are always great to watch. Thank you for bringing these places to life that one would not usually seek out including correctional facility ghost👻towns.
Those houses could be on post housing and halfway houses. If you go to Union CI in Stark. There are some really old homes that were use by staff and some still are. Avon Park CI also has homes like that that are on post housing.
@TampaJay l try to never miss your videos. You are always very informative...sometimes crazy excited and sometimes very, very funny! I also watch all of Cris the girls videos as well. 😊💞
I have RVed all over FL and love going through old towns like this, history. Be sure and check out the big old hotel in Sebring, FL. It’s just sitting there. Also the old Howey Mansion in Howey in the Hills. It was once abandoned and neglected but someone bought it and made it into a great wedding or event venue. Nice to see that happen. Arcadia too, an old FL cattle town. I’ve subscribed and will check out your past ramblings. Thanks!
@@UncaDave thanks man those places have been on my radar! Love Arcadia I have filmed it a couple of times I was fortunate enough to video the old opera house before it burnt
Really interesting. Maybe one day, you can have a drone to fly over places to check it out... This place reminds me of an abandoned orphanage in KY. There was a murder there to but not when it was open. I like to look in the old buildings too, and didn't see a no trespassing sign either. Thank you Tampa Jay.
I am looking forward to your opinion on the Indian Mounds in Moore Haven… the abandoned prison is a trip! I don’t get why they leave these places so abandoned when eventually the elements are just gonna get to them and they’re gonna become inhabitable. Once again, Jay great job sorry I couldn’t finally meet you in Fort Myers but family stuff came up maybe next time
I wonder if that lady who yelled at you was embarrassed by the condition of that place. Probably not because she obviously didn't care enough about it to clean the place up.

Thats The Old Level 8 Juvenile Program E.Y.D.C i Was There In 08 Them house was for the staff the building across from Gate 6 was the Dorm u go do yo last 60days at the other side of building was A Level 6 juvenile program
@@tiowilt not the original Burger King but the original Burger King to me. I’ve got a lot of stories and spent a lot of time in Muncie hello neighbor.!
That was Okeechobee school for boys. That and Dozier are the places that they used to put the bad boys and they were abused by the other inmates and the supervisors.
I thought it was the Okeechobee state correctional where some inmates escaped by tunneling in the 90s, now Dozier is the most horrific place EVER Google map removed it from their search, very disturbing and sad
That was okochobe boys hm for minors that got in trouble with the law my brother was there in the late 70s was jumped and almost beat to death before the gards steped in he spent. Several yrs there for stealing cars and joy riding 12:1712:22
Always love watching your videos Tampa Jay and I wonder if any of them prisons are haunted love you and Chris the girl 👧 from Michelle over here in Nottingham in England 🇬🇧 😉 😊😅😂😮❤❤❤❤
The Intensive Halfway House was on the NE side. I worked there in the late 90’s. Outer perimeter road was employee housing. Always a fan of your videos but do a little fact checking before posting. The Eckerd Youth Facility was one step below Juvenile Prison. It was a Level 8 facility. Looking forward to more videos.
Those houses are not halfway houses. Guards and other prison workers lived in those houses. When I was a kid my dad has friends who lived in those houses and I woke go she’s visit there. I rode my bike and the kids around the prison fence.
Thanks Jay for another great adventure. The lady that "talked" at you probably was not a very happy person... I mean if that was her store.. business obviously is not good... just saying.. There are so many abandoned places... but I wonder about the real big ones, like the prison... who was in charge of that? Sorry taxpayers, we are just letting this one go.. no rehabbing or doing anything.. who knows what the story was. Keep up the great work :)
Houses outside the fence are high ranking officer temp homes, the multiple unit buildings (WITH SATELLITE DISHES) are most likely BOQ (BACHELOR OFFICERS QUARTERS) staying there so they wouldn't have to drive so much in between shifts, I know someone who knows someone who knows someone with a cousin that was incarcerated 🤥🤥🤥 that had to maintain lawns or did construction of BOQs to practice and lower their custody level, in the 90's four or five prisoners escaped from their by tunneling
@katiehouse1576 the government is spending a ton of $ for border traffic at least this would supply homes. Just a thought. My heart hurts seeing families homeless or living in cheap motels. No child should have to be ashamed of where they live. It just hurt me that's all.
Awesome vlog! Not to far from me.. but I have to correct you on something. The name Raulerson, it is pronounced Raw- lerson not Rulerson. Prominent name, Google it. Not a family member but familiar with the name and went to school with a couple of the Raulersons.
Sorry you had to run into someone so rude. You'd think she'd want to share her story, especially someone so close to the community. Kill 'em with kindness though. Kind of wanted to see that collectible show. Hope that's for next time. Safe travels, Jay!
Tampa Jay That type of fencing is funny, if lets say one strand of same wire was over time degraded and broke lets say about 4 feet apart and fell away, Bingo the zipper is open. and as each wire interlaces with the next when one is missing it becomes a slot. (ex prison maintenance man told me that one.)
@@TampaJay I never did either until I was told about it. It's not really something Someone would think of. That's the design flaw in that as only one wire removed will open a giant slot in the fence! There's a high probability there's a few spots already in the fence like this, it being old and not maintained.
Indian River State College recently purchased the old EYDC (boys school). It will be turned into another branch of the school eventually. Right now just a grown up mess.
That place looks cool. The State could make that a homeless rehab place. Detox all the junkies and teach them a job. Make productive citizens out of them. That's just a wasted resource.

Those would not be halfway houses , that's most likelystaff housing.
That about it more when I got to the editing room. I think so too
Well, you can’t say that’s a one horse town 😂
This was a reform school not a prison it closed officially in the year 2021
Maybe those dorms were for those prisoners that had congical(sp?) visits.
Just sayin...
That place looks cool. The State could make that a homeless rehab place. Detox all the junkies and teach them a job. Make productive citizens out of them. That's just a wasted resource.
Those places were horrible for the poor animals that they kept the the most degrading condition,s Un real
Guards, and warners might lived in there houses
I think so too now that I’ve had more time to think about it
You sound a lot like Adam the woo lol
1st one to bust into a prison?
Affordable housing right there….
Too bad they can't fix them up and put homeless people in them
Seems like so many wasted tax dollars. Can't they figure out something else to do with this place?
Someone owns it weird how they leave the place wide open and the power on
😢😢😢😢😢
Could be repurposed to house illegals in the country prior to being deported back to their native countries.IMO🇺🇲👍
The houses he is showing are actually housing for the warden and corrections officers, inmates were never allowed to live on prison property.
What a shame. Could be repurposed for families etc. You have a low "ick" factor. LOL
