Love that you shot it in black-and-white. Gorgeous building, indeed.

Thank-you so much for the new gallery!

All of the doors are really big. O_O

Fabulous collection, Motts.

(He *is* only 6, after all - it can't all be serious with him, LOL)

Well, it looks like a very GOOD mural. . .

Fuzzy black on the ceiling... looks like a slowly creeping fungus waiting to drop upon the next trespasser.

I love the daylight coming through the lock! :D

Son's comment: "Looks like it's melting. Like ice cream in the hot sun."

Obviously you picked an appropriate title, Motts.

LOL... New York kinda way... that was funny.

That's a very imposing doorway. Does kind of have a soap dispenser look to the top, doesn't it?

*jaw drops*

Whoa.

Son's comment: "Ooooh, mom, can we live there when we move next?? Pleeeease??"

(The next generation of UErs, learning the art of true beauty in urban ruins at the knee of the Master... yes, Motts, you are inspiring my six year old to follow your footsteps.)

My son just said, "Air vents!" I said, "no, those are drains."

Which made me wonder... why are there drains in the floor? Was this a type of washing area?

What an abrupt ending... the blank finality to the hall is striking.

God I love the colors here... and the suggestion of the endless waiting before arching windows... *sigh*

I believe it says "Bad." I kinda laughed... it would be a stroke of simplistic genius to title one of The Happy Rooms at a psychiatric hospital with a plaque that simply said "Bad."

Alas, this is just the washroom. (Although "Bad" might still apply if my husband had recently visited the area... blech!)

Well, it was worth the wait for a new gallery. Beautiful....Depending on its location, this place would be a wonderful hotel...I wish I could afford to make it so...:)
