hahahahaha I'm laughing at myself. I refreshed many times and waited for a couple of minutes before double posting. OOPs.

Weird I had thought the post went through.
Anyway I found an aerial pic taken in the 1960's right about when I was in the Children's Shelter here. It shows the original 1905 hospital out behind the 1929 Y shaped building up on the hill. I'm pretty sure this hallway is in that old building. I was told when I was younger that it was the dorms for the nurses at the big hospital but there was also an old map on that site which showed the original hospital and that is what told me that "dorm" was actually the original 1905 hospital. It is gone now and Condos replaced it. The main 1929 hospital which leads off this gallery is being remodeled into condos as I type.
That old hospital is where the county had a Children's Shelter from the 50's until 1981.

I found an aerial picture of the place taken from behind the main hospital. Its on FB and it was posted years ago but for some reason in all my searches there it only came up for me today. Anyway there was also a picture of an old map showing the original 1905 hospital building and that is what the E shaped building was. The E faced the 1929 hospital building built on top of the hill. I'm not sure exactly what part of that E shaped building this is but I am pretty sure it is in there. The long leg of the E that connects the three arms looks like it was an afterthought to connect the three buildings in the picture but I think it was probably part of the original design.

I found an aerial photo on Anthony Buccino FB page. It is from behind the hill looking over the old buildings a lot of these photos are from. I also found out on that page that the E shaped building was actually the original 1905 Hospital. He posted an old map of the original hospital.

It's green linoleum; perhaps it signified the room in some way, or it could've just been an accent color.

There were stairwells that led behind the far wall I believe; I suppose it shields any distractions from patrons trying to find their seats.

Thank you for the advice; every time I've been followed, there was no luxury of time to set up something like that, as the person(s) were inside the building with me. I also feel that if one is being followed covertly, there's a high probability that these people may have some serious malicious intent (this has definitely happened to me a few times elsewhere), and such a trap would only antagonize the pursuer. I prefer to avoid these situations altogether.

I couldn't find any...
This photo is quite sad. Thanks for another great gallery and have a Merry Christmas / Seasons Greetings everyone!!
Lots of seats in great shape.
Nice cupboards.
This hospital offered its patients an awful lot of activities etc.
Lovely pool 7.5 feet deep. I agree with Freespirit76, it is awful seeing an abandoned pool with filthy water etc. in it.
If that room was pitch black, you have very good photo lights.
What is all that paper on the floor? Hopefully not patient records.
