i imagine this was a the resting place of a person of wealth and status, ironic how in the end none of that seems to matter.

back in 2010 they held a "dinner" in there. Perhaps why it appears so clean. They do open that up from time to time for limited access tours, which I did last year.

Prancer and Tony C, I love you both.

It was a good thing I had my lucky sock and glove with me when I noticed the crooked cushion on the chair. Disorder is unacceptable, don't you agree?

Because I was fortified with my lucky charms, I only had to hurl the cushion out the window and smack the chair around the room a few times before the balance of the universe was restored.

We can only HOPE who takes it is a dealer in antiques, or can refurbish it. Otherwise, it will be destroyed by the 'brats' that love to steal, break and torch. :(

While wearing the sock, and one glove I will do the moonwalk backwards and cartwheel backwards over the chair....

Slab tubs were common for institutions for the mentally retarded. I don't think it was a hydrotherapy room-that sort of treatment went out in the 1950s.

The nurses had less lifting to do when bathing "crippled" patients.

Look at http://vimeo.com/365508 to see what this place probably looked like in the 1950s. You can see a nurse giving a young boy a bath in a tub like this.
