Those waves and lines at bottom are greek style.

Sometimes for steel beams where also used train tracks.

I am quite curious as to whether there was a utilitarian use to the towers, that is where they used as offices, rooms, etc - or were they merely installed as architectural, ornamental features - though, of course, that would be no less important -

Richardson's "Trinity Church" on Copley square In Boston has a big tower over the transcept as well -

From my understanding, often times these towers of old 19th century buildings were more ornamental/decorative features - unfinished attic spaces, as your other works and photographic adventures document -

but I love to imagine that there were offices in these, for the higher ups on the hospital administration, or even a lavish medical library, or perhaps a medical specimen museum even! -

Lovely photographs as par usual, I have probably spent 500 million hours looking @ your work over the past ten years. Time and time again I come back to your aethernet gallery. I am going on 27 now (in two months), and I have poured over your work I believe since I was 16, if not before -

The metal bars, control station, pipes, fixtures, valves etc. are probably all missing because they were sent to the scrap yard for cash. The tub is a pretty standard style used in many hospitals for continuous baths.

maybe it was a pool in the basement ..maybe the wall on the right was added. they just added a few walls and turned the basement into a few rooms. maybe

Suffering from study burnout... this gallery is a treat...time to go far away and relax...thanks Motts...

Oh an underlaying pater. It is same as in baskets made from thin and long wood chips.

Yum. yum I'm hungry for some ice cream.

So scary. Imagine coming on that in moonlight or in dark night. I so run for hills screaming lika sissy.

Reminds me somthing from winter gardens.

Ugh, bring back memories from time when I had to stand in line to resive medication in hospital.

At least room are not in pepto pink color. It sucks as a color for institutions.

It looks like a long bench with no top. Seeing the windows it must be some siting or living area.

That bath tub reminds me of grandmothers house. Her bath tub was so big that as a child I could swim in it for hours.
