Yes I believe you are correct; the titles of the photos are often a bit abstract and may not exactly reflect the photograph (it's not easy coming up with titles for 4,000+ photos!)

I don't know of any plans for this building... it was abandoned sometime in the 1970s.

I once heard that if the building falls in on itself, there might be a way to circumvent the laws regarding abatement and other (expensive) EPA protocols, as the structure would be too dangerous to work on... not sure if it is true though.

surprizing finds when I stop to remember what this building was. Such stark difference from the wheelchair in the basement and vastly distant from the isolation wards....

the details here, the stained glass windows, the intricate fireplace. What a spectacular place this once was! Never mind the purpose of the place for a minute, the arcitecture and design is very interesting.
