If any kind of infection or disease were left over, it would be long dead by now.

Is it an actual photograph, or does anyone else think those restraints look drawn on?

The baby looks happy enough, but the older kid is not thrilled.

Amazing composition and sense of light.

They're tearing most of it down to build a new inpatient psychiatric facility.

There's another one in Dayville(?), CT. Just the screen though.

Nice! I'd love to see it (since I doubt I'll get to the abandoned ones any time soon).

You can't get lead poisoning just from breathing around lead paint.

Apparently at Worcester State Hospital in the late 19th century, patients were eating lobster...doesn't sound too bad to me.

I really doubt that's a children's ward.

Isn't the one at Belchertown pretty massive?

Looks like the tower in Vertigo. Very cool.

Approximately $1 million in 1870s moneys.

Actually, as far as I know, morgues are typically located close to cafeterias/kitchens to share the refrigeration system.

And the whooshing noise as it goes right overhead...
