well put pegasus64, i agree

there used to be a similarly-designed brass bed at my grandfather's house. even though the bed is bolted to the floor, the springs/chains holding up the matress are ridiculously easy to remove... could be used for suicide or for attack

it must have been a pain to change that lightbulb... but maybe they never changed it... if i was perpetually stuck in that room, i think i'd want it to be dark, but that's just me

oh i think it was actually a mental hospital/sanatorium, i believe... but i'm not sure

was the island city eldokid mentioned called Poveglia? I saw a documentary on Poveglia, it was originally used to exile victims of the second major outbreak of bubonic plague in the 1500's (i think) and then a mental hospital was built there, then abandoned. It is actually off limits to citizens now, many think it is cursed and/or haunted.... it is near venice, by the way

like i mentioned earlier, reminiscent of the isolation rooms in the gaebler article

wow, just wow.... amazing shot
it would suck to see nothing but that view, all day, every day

i love how there are still little labels next to each rack

p.s.- lol hansi

It looks like in row 2, 2 squares up in the window that someone in a silhouette is walking in the distance. Kind of creepy but cool

not only is it more expensive to bulid deviating pages, but i imagine that it would be hard to keep track of renegade patients without a clear view

that's some impressive paint peeling going on... i wonder what happened to the pipe on the right toilet.... i also reccomend visiting this site i recently stumbled upon, it shows toilets from various cultures around the world... strangely fascinating...

..."so many people stare at me, so few actually say hello"..

With the price of scrap metal these days I am surprised most of it hasn't been recycled.

I suspect a little elf once lived inside...

i like stairs effect that the building has its pretty cool
