Neverland Restoration
Something I've been wondering and hoping for is that Neverland is restored and returned to a condition that
would make Michael proud, with all of his statues and things he had and the way it was designed so that
we could go and visit. Kind of like a Graceland, but also a place for children to play. I think it would be a shame
if nothing was ever done with it. I think about it alot and hope that this special, magical place of MJ's is
made accessible in some way. Do you guys think that fans could play a part in getting this done?

That would be the BEST thing to ever happen! It seems like what Michael would want. I heard one of his children are going to buy it when they turn 18.

Re: Neverland Restoration
NVR is called Sycamore Valley Ranch now as it was when MJ first bought the property-There is documentation with the breakdown of the percentages of ownership that the MJ Estate has in the property-I will dig it up and post when I find that -
Also regarding the kids-I would like to see where that info is about them buying it at age 18
It is a fact that the MJ3 will not inherit the fortune Michael has in place for them until they are 30 years of age. It is best IMO as most people really do not have a handle on things of major importance that impacts their lives as a whole until at least their mid 20's-MJ was brilliant setting the terms up this way-protects the kids from making rash immature decisions and protects them from others stealing it away from them (hopefully)

It was a good decision indeed. Even if they don't appreciate it now (not saying they don't, saying I don't know if they do), they certainly will later on

Re: Neverland Restoration
I have seen a few reports on Neverland since I made that post, indicating that Colony is just kind of waiting on the Estate and family to decide what to do with it. I am wondering if they have had a chance to start deciding. There is always so much drama going on. In the mean time, it seems like all of his things are being auctioned away - things that should be there if they decide to restore it and open it up.

I sure do hope that the estate restores Neverland back to it's former glory and allow Michael's fans to visit the property...that would be awesome !!

Re: Neverland Restoration
Here is a part of an interview I did regarding Neverland ...
KW: In your opinion, would you like to see Neverland Ranch become a place for fans to visit in the future to honor Mr. Jackson?
AS: Absolutely! I know there has been talk both good and bad about that possibility. There have been reports of Mr. Jackson saying he hated Neverland and would never live there again. Given the acts of the DA, the Sheriff and 'that family', I do not doubt those reports. I believe eventually Mr. Jackson would have re-opened Neverland. Why do I believe that you ask (?). During my 15 years at Neverland, sitting at a picnic table under a huge oak tree, I had several long conversations with Mr. Jackson about Neverland. Looking into his eyes and hearing his voice, there is no doubt that the charity work done at Neverland was one of the most important things in his life. In time, I believe the importance of those magical days for those sick kids and inner city kids would have found its way back into Michael’s heart. The letters from doctors and nurses from children's hospital and the letters from parents who hang on to the memory of their child and that trip to Neverland, make it very clear how important Mr. Jackson’s charity work thru Neverland was. I became very good friends with a kid with Cystic Fibrosis (number 1 genetic killer of children). Jeff visited Neverland once with Children's
Hospital of Los Angeles and twice as my guest during the annual employee family day. One day after taking it (Neverland) all in ... he looked at me and said "I don't know if I like Michael Jackson the entertainer (Jeff was a Lollapalooza kind of kid) but I am sure I like Michael Jackson the person". Jeff truly understood Michael and the importance of Neverland ... and as I write this and hang on to those happy memories of Jeff at Neverland, I understand the importance of Neverland. If Neverland were brought back to its 'Hay Day' condition and opened to the public part of the time to support itself and part of the time for invitation only charity events ... it would be a win - win situation.
If you want to read the whole interview ...
