When I first clicked on this page, the first impression I got was that the springs are trying to get up out of the bed. Thorougly creepy shot.

This picture is amazing. Great work!

I pass this place everyday for work and the buildings creeped me out for a wile but I got use to it. Now it's just sad to them vacant. Great pics

I really enjoy your photos Motts. I am a nurse and have a great interest in the history of medicine. Your site puts a visual image to everything i have been researching. Thank you for preserving the history that is being destroyed all to quickly as these beautiful structures are being demolished.

I worked at the Pines in the summer of 86 or 87 as a cocktail waitress with Angie, Dina, Micheal, Hector was a bartender, Jerry was the manager. I can't remember the maitre d's name, I just remember him eating his pasta with ketchup and telling me the story of how growing up his family was so poor and his parents used ketchup as sauce. He got so used to it that it was the only way he could ever eat it. I always think of him and would love to know his name. The Ehrilichs were there, Speedy Garfunkel and his bank (I still have their cassette). There also was a comedian that played there a lot. In his act he used to take a napkin, and talked about a bird flying around the show and "it pooped on you head" If anyone remembers any of these people please let me know. I later went to the Browns for 2 years and worked reservations and front desk, was there when the Margoulas family bought it.

I worked as a cocktail waitress 1986-87, does anyone remember Jerry the manager, Hector the bartender or Angie, Michael? How about Speedy Garfinkel (think that was it). What a blast we had...so sad to see it like this.

I think he meant more so about prisons and accidently "dropping soap" and getting more than you bargained for. ;-)
