Back lighting ahhhhh makes the priest seem ethereal blinds the congregation.

Almost looks like an alien from a 1950s scifi movie.

People sure can be awful. What a waste.

I could use one or two of these doors.

Did you figure it out yet Mike?
Follow the conduit at the top above the door in the middle, it drops down to a plug for that AC. You see its an optical illusion, the window it is poking out of is in the same wall that door at the end of the hallway is.

This place is within easy commute of Manhattan, thus re-purposing will take the form of demolition and new housing. Whose to complain that some folks make a ton of money off this public property sure to be sold for a pittance to private developers.

It's my opinion that the neglect and use of mind numbing drugs and assertive approach that treated adults like children actually made people go off. In such places very often these rooms meant for extreme last resort were used as punishment and just to abuse people because they could. An awful lot of the people who work in the services meant to help those whom are least able to help themselves attract scum just like child centered professions attract paedos.

Eldo this was the kind of place they locked people up involuntarily, The jail motif autoguy jokes about in that pic 'Dinosaur' was pretty much what this place was about. I've wondered about the emergency plans in such situations but never found out the actual procedures in whatever evac plan was made. I expect they relied more on design and procedure to prevent emergency than they did on planning to get out in case of.

Painting them made clean up and sanitation easier Darlene

This makes me think of that 90's song "My name is Luca"
