Looking back on this collection... I noticed how the smoke detector was wired. the norm in the US would have been to have run ugly conduit everywhere for these instead of taking the harder, but better route of wiring through the walls and ceilings.

Next time you are on a plane take a look at the safety brochure... Those people don't look all that concerned about the upcoming water landing.

Interesting... the sign looks to be on the outside of the door and there doesn't seem to be a handle there either.

I'm no scientist, but anything that prevents explosive vaporization sounds like a good thing to me!

Of course, I was so excited about the new pics that I skipped over the part of your intro talking about the fire.

I will second the awe and the thanks.

I hope they stripped this place bare before it was torn down. It would be a shame to have wasted this amazing craftmanship.

My earlier post about a fire may have been wrong then. Strange that the coloring on the ceiling would have been deliberate.

It looks like there was a fire a long time ago...

Beautiful. It always surprises me when something that could have great uses in an area that really appreciates its history is torn down.

New gallery night is even better when one is named after me. Thanks for all your pics... taking them is fun, but I know posting is a lot of work.

this is so shady

Any idea what the hardbound book sitting on the top left was? I doubt the copier manual was bound like that.

Looks to be a lot of piping and work for the sprinklers. Based on the pipe, it looks like ran heads into the atic space as well.

wow, nice i like this one. The date on the paper makes it all.
