Been a while for me also. I sat here trying to remember "what's the name of Motts site?" . . . and it just suddenly hit me while I was drinking a glass of dark ale . . .

. . . impervious to seepage . . .

Or escape, it seems . . .

My guess on the bump outs is a support for a different joist system, the room was "opened up" at a later date perhaps.

It's like it should be an album (or CD) cover, for those old enough to know what those were. Question would be to all is: Who would the band be?

If they don't reuse the building I hope they salvage the wood. Those solid support beams and the ones above the 2nd level are amazing. I think I will say away from dope_mexican_chick's insta page though...

Motts - was it chilly in there with one of the radiators laying down on the job? OK, I'll show myself out now.

This was probably less traumatic than we think. Prior to the 40's/50's most of the country was very rural. It would have been normal for families outside of the large cities to raise a few animals for their own food needs or trading with other families.

I love how the walkway is not just right angles- its curved with some interest with railings that match.

A new Motts classic, the lone desk shot?

Thanks for the amazing photos!

Most amazing spot need to find more spots like this

Sadly, I don't think it's completely vacant anymore I live in Baltimore and really want to check this spot out. If anyone has any info please email me at 1234matt4321@gmail.com

Good photo but it also gives me the ultra creeps

That's a big room for only having one small apparent ~1' wide shelf. Way too much wasted floor space to be a kitchen pantry. Maybe a library with reading tables in there at one time? If there were no windows to the left or behind the shot, then that rules that out.

My freind threw this across the room into the staff like it was a frisbee..this place made monsters
