Why there would be ceiling supports resembling a highway overpass in a foyer area, I have no idea.

Nice Motts, looks like you got a great shot of one of the "Kenny Dumonds"!

I live about a few hundred feet away from this place and was very sad to see it go. The cheap housing that is replacing it has no character at all compared to the old Kirkbride! The primary component of most of it is cheap glue board; I'll will be very surprised if any of it lasts 20 years without developing serious structural problems.

Anywho, from what I understand Ken was a charge attendant at the hospital, he painted many of these around the place, the most numerous of them were found in the newer buildings (memorial group) on the other side of the campus. There was a room on the third floor in I do believe G ward that was full of scenic paintings just like this one.

Thanks for taking all of these! Makes me wish I went in a few more times to get more shots myself........

the history behind these abandonments are far more interesting to me than the creep factory

My great grandfather spent the last 40 years of his life here after he returned from Normandy with a serious case of what we now call PTSD. I'm sure that during his time there he spent time in many of the spaces you photographed. Thank you, Motts for preserving this. In a world that wants to forget, you have given us a library to help us remember.
