These are high quality stainless pipes...looks like they were installed yesterday!! Motts.."cruddy shot " are words that we NEVER use here...shame on you
My husband and I rent out an old two family apt house. It's almost 90 years old and has this same type of steam radiators. We had to buy covers for them for safety reasons..the covers in this pic I don't think are legal anymore. What we found out though is that to buy these radiators now, used, figure on about $15 a coil. The one in this pic is worth about $350! Can't beat the heat they put out. I'm surprised the ones here weren't all stolen already. But then again seems like only youngins been through the place
Hey Tammy B... umm..I 'm really hoping that you are being sarcastic here but just in case you ARE clueless...the hole in the middle is the faucet..where the water comes out....it was built right into the sink
No way water can be in the radiators..heating system had to be shut down before vacany. But do you know that those old radiators are worth at least $10 per coil? I can see about 25 in this pic
About that couch....I hate to admit it, but my Dad purchased office waiting room furniture for our den back in the 60's. I am one of six children and my parents swore it was the best thing they did!! They had to recover the cushions only once, but the frames never wore out! Had the couch and 2 chairs for years. Looked a lot like this one, but the wood arms came straight out instead of curving under . The couch was green and the chairs orange!!!! Definite 60's retro!!! I think the cushions were gore-tek or pleather covered foam rubber....
There is a bathtub in the school because the "students" were mental patients who lived here. Here in New England, state funded institutions were called "State Schools" or "State Hospitals". We still have one in Wrentham,MA that used to be called Wrentham State School..It's now known as the Wrentham Development Center
Awesome stuff. Thanks, Motts. Growing up in Foxboro created a lot of creepy ,urban legend type campfire stories because of "THE STATE HOSPITAL" Remember "Hook Man" ??? HE WAS FROM FOXBORO STATE HOSPITAL!!!!! WOOoooHAaaaOOO!!
