I don't know if it's the angle or the lens but this mattress looks really long.

It does seem a bit negative and severe. . . I like it!

How many scenes/stories can you make out of this. . . I can think of several.

I go on vacation for a few days and what happens.. . a new gallery! This looks to be a great one too. Mr. Motts you must live for adrenaline, the stories you tell get MY adrenaline going! Thanks!

But Hell is where all the fun people go!

Yup, I imagine the light is behind a secure box for that reason... I suppose it could be possible for someone to sneak an object that could be thrown at it to shatter the glass.

Yup; the lower brickwork is Flemish Bond and the top, darker bricks are Flemish Garden Wall Bond, with more stretchers between the headers.

After reading up on various patterns a few years back, brick walls suddenly seemed a bit more interesting to me!

Overbrook had a recreation building and chapel (I believe they were quite modern), but the cops chased us out before we could get there.

Well, the transom windows were originally made of glass, which was obviously a safety hazard here. Before the advent of high strength plastics, the only other option was wire, which can look even more gloomy: http://opacity.us/imag..._secure_measures.htm

I have no clue why the place wasn't re-purposed - but investigating the bureaucratic decisions surrounding the property, the amount of involvement of a local historic preservation community, and the possibility of a small group of people who will make a lot of money off the demolition might be some good leads to begin to answer that question!

Making sure it's secure!

Even the excessively bright walls doesn't make this room look any bigger. Hey Motts!

Very narrow stairs. Too closed in! Luscious peeling paint tho.

wow, no dirty or rust

The dark doors don't seem to fit in there
