Hmm. Another x.

I love when there's still a framed picture on the wall of a decrepit room... decor's still trying somehow to brighten up the place...

... Have you never had a pranormal experience, Mama?

These beds seem to be quite old. Horsehair ceased to be used as a mattress-stuffer around the end of the 40s, I believe. Defffffinitely not your regulation, hypo-allergenic hospital-approved stuff used today.

Sometimes when hospitals are evacuated, and particularly before demolition or renovation, crews go through to mark areas they are making sure are empty, spray-painting an x or something similar when they've checked. Some laws require this final check, due to squatters and -ahem- wandering photographers;). Dunno if that's what it is, but it's a possibility, and maybe they changed their minds about tearing up this area.

Great, great stuff.

LOVE it. Am I too late to call dibs?

Exactly what I thought, Binky.

our old friend Institutional Blue.

I'm wondering if actually a prisoner drew those and was made to cover them by guards.

Lovely shot.

I recognise the print hanging at left as Edward Hopper's most famous work... that also was a commentary on American life... very cool find.

You people are soap obsessed. Hehe

Ah... thank goodness for internet, space for comments, free speech, and most of all good art. Intriguing.

"Ya gotta wanna" is a great motto. This sign, and so close up, does indeed mock...
