Nice Gallery guys. I have a bunch of pictures and also some videos of this place, if anyone is interested. Later.

*The catwalks are made of 3 inch thick panes of glass. Believe it or not, they are still pretty strong. The reason that they are glass, and not steel, is to let the most light into the cells as possible. Remember when this jail was built, there were no electric lights (or indoor plumbing - toilets). The only light that was available was the light that came in thru the front of the cell. That is why these old jails have such huge barred windows. The rest of the facility was lit with gas lanterns.

I have been to this jail many, many times. It is one of the most dangerous places that I have ever "explored". Good place to get arrested too. HEAVILY PATROLED.
*This cage is the "Officers Bullpen". It is where the Correction Officers would congregate.
