There are some rev war soldiers' graves back in there, I doubt they'd disturb those. Otherwise the site has been used for dumping for many years and the woods in there are pretty much totally covered with trash. There is maybe an acre left of what once covered many acres with barracks and warehouses. A good portion of the original depot complex is paved over from a now closed shopping mall and a big gas station/convenience store operates on part of the main site. Other parts are paved over by a local highway that is five lanes wide where the original dirt road once ran covering some of the site. Like many preservation groups in this area they are a day late and a dollar short, so many rev war sites in this area lost to development since the 1950s. I might just go over and see what is going on firsthand, thanks for posting.
