Eww, reminds me of the fluoride soak I'd have to have in my mouth for 1 minute when I was a kid at the dentist-bad if I ended up getting the grape flavor! Whatever stuff they used for my retainer impression 11 years ago did not taste especially good...and somehow it wasn't right the first time they tried it so I was stuck there while they did it again. Fortunately, now all I have to have stuck in my mouth are the things for x-rays. Yay, no flavor!

Coulrophobia central around here, I notice. Would a hockey mask be cheerier?

Hey I actually live just about 15 miles from this building. I was always fascinated by the old mines of Limburg. By the way the hills aren't natural: they are heaps of garbage that came out of the mine until they were closed (Zolder was the last in 1992). Nowadays they are al green and popular for a nice one hour climb for a terrific view of the surrounding towns.

Love your site!

O wow only if they knew what really went on.

Ya i know people have said this before but wow there is still toilet paper on the roll. how long has that been there?

Thanks; I can't say for sure but I believe either one or both right-side doors were used to access the refrigeration machinery. If only one door was used for access, the other was most likely for storing tissue samples or body parts that needed to be refrigerated.

This is one creepy picture! Your eye is drawn to the black cave(?) in the center, and the drab ceiling and walls sort of go together color-wise to frame that black area...

It almost looks like a painting!

the railing looks so fluid and graceful against the rough stone! Normally I love the older, rougher-looking stuff, and can't see what people see in modern style, but in this case, the railing sets off the brick/stone beautifully.

it's lovely the way the yellow wall is peeling to show the green paint underneigth, while the yellow wall picks up the yellow-greens of the plants... ties them together beautifully!

yes, they knew that heat rises, but remember these places had to accomodate people who were dangerous to themselves--harder to burn yourself (on purpose or not) on a high-placed radiator. Not to mention seditives and other meds--can you imagine if some sedated patient fell asleep against one? Better to elevate them.

can u still get inside the building or is it blocked off, is there security?

...unless it's a particularly hot day ;)

Nothing to freak out about ;)

Neon like that is definitely missed. I think most traffic lights on poles I've seen are fastened on.
