Nice Apache! Happily creating away! A good place for this! Beauty of the old and new ideas together.
Ohh how lovely this is: Nature and Man-made perfectly together! Yes! What fine pictures you take.
Well done Sets! Now if it were like this most of the time, i´d be pretty happy about the graffiti all the time. Nice find!
oh come on folk....No Smoking....EXPLOSIVES! storage for the really slow.
Why does anyone need a peep-hole to look into a morge???
Well... Motts, I beg to differ. Please notice that the riser/down pipe in the middle of the group of valves has a pipe plug on the top and there is no ID tag.
Directly above is a "device", it appears to be an old Spirax-Sarco steam pressure reducing valve. If you rotate the pipe on the top of the "device"from the 7 O'Clock position as it is in your photo, to the 3 O'Clock position the out-put port would line up with the middle down-port. I wish the picture was a little bit larger as I am sure the main steam feed would have been observed. After all that....MOTTS you are great, keep them coming!!!
I surmise that what we are looking at is a steam pressure reducing and distribution system. As facilities reduced in size, many just abandoned systems to un-needed facilities, as evidence by the pipe plug.
I work in this building 50 years ago and I cannot believe that it is still the same place looks horrible today! it's sad when the the state cuts funding for programs most buildings have to be abandoned! it's a real shame!
This room is NOT what it seems...notice, the drain from the sink runs a good 6 feet until it goes into the wall. The small steam radiator is too small to haet a room that size that has water in it. I think this room was originaly a service room, linen storage or something.
Probably an outside door. Raised threshold to keep the rain out and extra height to allow for equipment delivery, ( beds, tubs and other "stuff" ).
These colors are classic mental health colors. The jail that I worked at used these colors until 2010. Pinks were thought to be calming, Greens were for those with hard-core mental issues and Blues were thought to help those with mental retardation. FYI, Reds and Yellows, were thought to be very agitating. This was all de-bunked in the 1990's.
Look at the thickness of the outside walls, this place was built to last AND to withstand the elements.
Awesome - the door aglint and the light at the end of the hall, like a face! Yes, and the sting of fear..........................hmmmmm. NICE!
Ahhh this shot; just love it! Everything is PERFECT! The angles, the dark and the light, and the position of the chair: "Was just sitting here thinking" should i leave, the door is open. Naw,, I´ll stay.
Lone chair event, you´ve done it again! May you always be well, Mr. motts.
LOVE YOUR TITLES! It is nice to give a picture its very own name and, yes, it helps to see what you saw: clearly: your idea of what you want to show me. They are excellent and witty! Good work.
May you always be well is my wish.
Beautiful colors: chocolate and sweet raw sugar egg tiger cake: DELICIOUS!! How fine that you took a close-up of the good-looking tiles. Methinks someone stole just a few and decorated their kitchen and is now sitting there eating the matching cake and smiling; true Fun Every Day-style. Be well, Mr. Motts.
