If they wait too much longer to restore the vines will have taken over completely.

The Grand Old Lady is gone now. Such a waste of beautiful architecture.

Wonder what was hanging on the walls...

A hospital in Portland was closed back in the 50's or 60's. My father has a rare blood disorder. The medical personal have retrieved all the records for my fathers disorder except the ones in this hospital. The main record they need is the ones which were destroyed. The records destroyed were my fathers origins of his disease. Know there is no way to be able to replicate this. There shouldl be no time frame to destroy the records.

Erus, negatory on wood con rods...They're steel, just discolored from oil/heat/time... wood would have been destroyed from the sheer force
of operating a behemoth like this.

Dead satin is smelly...

Definitely Grumpy! Especially lens fog. Walking outdoors with your camera when its been kept indoors and say its cool and air conditioned and 85 or 90 outdoors ... oh yeah! Makes for a foggy shot :)

Tech question: Do temperature extremes have any effect on digital cameras? (lens fogging, mechanism sticking, etc.)?

This is sweet

i actually really like these chairs

There used to be a "Mystery spot" in Gatlinburg also...Made my Dad sick to his stomach for the rest of the day! Water running uphill, etc.

What a shot, Mr.M. Excellent find. Eerie and uncanny, and will NEVER know why items were left behind. There is a bag there, too. Keep thinking it was the lunch. Am dreaming it was a very hot day and he rushed out to meet his beloved. And next day mine was closed......

Picture to have it ALL - interesting subject, amazing angle, the main street to the left AND trees on the roof! EXCELLENT! Pure brave and talent, Mr.M.

Yes, massive is THE WORD......................GREAT SHOT!

Am rather happy ´bout the passerby so can understand the size of this, which was hard at times. Get this amazed feeling. "How can you build this?"
