I agree - please make this one wallpaper.

Great perspective. Took me a moment to get my eye oriented.

Jessica, I didn't see the smiley face at first, but as soon as I read your comment I looked again and immediately saw it.

This one I have been through when I lived in St Louis, although it was in much better shape. You need to check out Central High School in St Louis.

I live in Deer Park, very close to Pilgrim. They've demolished pretty much everything. All of the staff houses are gone, and many of the buildings. I used to frequently visit pilgrim as well. The staff houses were demolished in 2011 or 2012. The very large building, I believe 23, was demolished a few years ago. It is so sad. I used to do my urban exploring at Pilgrim all of the time. I work in the heartland corporate center (part of pilgrim back in the day as well). I'd take some pictures to show you all what it looks like now if I had a way to share them here. The buildings are just piles of ashes and bricks.

It looks sad - sad that it's been abandoned and is no longer useful. Makes me sad that it can't realize how it's inspiring others - such as you, Motts

This one truly took my breath away.

What floor is the morgue on in hayswood ?

I suspect the bar around the sink is to prevent the sinks being pulled from the wall. Note there is really no way to hold onto this bar for any support.

....just getting better and better. I'd love to have something like this bordering my back yard garden.

What can I say except - simply beautiful

Just a thought, but perhaps the locks were inset so that if an inmate did manage to grab some keys from a passing guard, he wouldn't be able to reach around at that angle to unlock the door.

James Quinn, like Innocente Clementi?

Man, I thought I was going to fall forward!

I couldn't discern a grade in the floor, but there could've been. I recall the system being generally on one "level" in that there weren't any staircases more than a few feet and the rooms weren't stacked on top of each other. As we got deeper into the system, the elevation declined to a point which brought the floor just under the water table.
