I envision a Victorian lady sitting here reading a book while watching her children play in the garden...

The fireplace looks dramatically smaller just because the mantel was removed (most likely by salvage thieves). The huge stone support beam in the firebox would have been covered by a heavily carved mantel. I agree with the above comments that most likely a giant mirror was used on the over mantel to reflect large amount of light into this beautiful room. I can see how beautiful it was in my head!

It's broken but it can also be restored. Ive done work like this and that railing could be restored. It is amazing the type of restoration products are out there today...

WOW That fan is old in deed! OSHA would have a hay day if they came across one of these old fans in the work place and I would bet Child services would scream if one of these fans was in the house hold. todays fans are so caged in to prevent people from puting there fingers in them I can only wonder what the hospital staff was thinking when they put this in the hospital?

The Power plant is no longer runing and the lights in the buildings no longer work. What ever newer EXIT signs that have been instaled have built in solar pannels on them.

If the city does decide to take this building down I hope at least they try to salvage of all the beautiful architectural details it has. I just think its crazy that no one could find a new use for such an amazing building of this quality.

Absolutely beautiful..this type of stonework is never seen anymore. As a Historic Preservationist it makes me physically upset that these buildings are left to fall apart...
