The before shot really puts into perspective how wasteful we are here in America. You would think that keeping the building up and re-configuring it into a purposful structure would have been cheaper than letting it go and then trying to come up with a fix.

It is too bad they can't salvage some of the materials that are left...

There was an old "insane asylum" by us that was torn down in the 80's. They built a new building onto it and then the cost of keeping up the old building became to great for the facility to bear, so they ended up tearing it down. I never got to see the old building, but from the pictures I have seen, it didn't seem to be a Kirkbride building, although it did have the central administration building and then wings on both sides. Wish I was into this stuff back then...

Well anyone can tell that's not blood; it's too bright. When blood oxidizes, it turns to a mix of dark rust/brown. Besides that, who said it was done when a patient was there? Could have been some clown who sucks at tagging.

You awe me, sir :). My respect for you expands exponentially every time I visit the site. I literally drain the power on my iphone nightly, I'm working alphabetically through your archives.

I work in the camera business, and I've never heard of flashlight painting! (feelin' like a bit of a tool because of that, actually..) thank you for teaching me more!

This gallery is one of the most fascinating I've seen on here so far, other than Crypt of Barons.
This space you've captured here has a dark vibe, I really like it!
