This pic makes me feel uneasy and dizzy. *scrolls up* I like it.

the previous pic was of this ones eastern side?
I am so into this!

You're right, Aliester, and I apologize. I notice I do tend to get unjustifiably defensive when someone calls a mental health facility a "nuthouse" and wonders if someone who builds a lovely home for people with problems should therefore also be classified as having problems. That was a totally uncalled for observation on my part and I'll not say anything else. The floor is yours. :-)

Yaaayyy !!!! Keep em commin.

woah!

er...where is the main building?
What are these structures on the left and right...If the bridge is to the right. (the structure I see on the right)...Is that a boat buffer in the center of the pic? or a turnstill of a sorts?

your photos floor me!

Arrrgh no flood Matey

Frank Bannerman.

this kind of stone (non poreous) maybe marble ..., would be immune to the insidious nature of water.
Was this a basement entry...leading from the river to the upper levels? Or a tomb in Egypt? Naw, there is a window there. Definitly American!

Ditto, one of the more relaxing ones.

Put your claws away Lynne. I thought personal opinion was allowed here. You saw no attitude toward the tenants ( called 'insane' because as Motts did note, this was an Insane Asylum). I see alot of commentary on this site, most of which is accepted as opinion without retort, and I notice also that you seem to be the only one who takes personal offense to the point of 'taking someone on'. No flames please.

This looks like some sort of twisted dream from Alice and Wonderland. Great composition.

It's the mark of great architecture if a building can withstand all the things this has gone through. No wonder they called it a castle.

It kind of gives one a sense of melancholy to know that this place is so deteriorated. It's so lovely. I bet the interior, when it was still intact, was almost like transporting to another era.

what whacky guy?
