Henry, I can't even begin to imagine having to have gone through what you have. Being that I am both claustrophobic and have a huge phobia when it comes to being restrained or immobalized, I don't think I would have been able to mentally handle being in one of the lungs, even if it was necessary to keep me alive. I would have gone insane. I had panic attacks after undergoing surgery years back because as I was coming out of the anestisia I could not move from the waist down and could not handle it, even knowing it was simply a temporary immobility. They had to sedate me just to keep me calm while the paralysis from the drugs wore off. Knowing what you have been through, I can tell you truthfully you are a much stronger and braver person then I could have ever been in the same situation

Do you what's even funnier? There pictures were taken LOOOOOOOOOONG before Byberry was ever a federally contained asbestos abatement site.

the salmon building is many buildings behind the keetle building

funny...pictures posted from a federally contained asbestos abatement area. the level of scrutiny people think they are under on this page and pictures are allowed to be posted of thus said people breaking federal laws.

This wasn't a psychiatric hospital.

sorry, it looks like english 300 escaped me when i forgot to proof the above post...

why so several abandoned asylums have black rooms??? is there a theory about structure i missed in penology or abnormal psychology???

PS: Brilliant shot to end the gallery with, kinda sad its over :(

WHOA! Holy hell these just keep getting better, I really wanna see this one in a wallpaper!!!! Please Sir Motts

I said earlier that one of the other shots was the definitive shot, now im not too sure......WALLPAPERS!!!!

Expect to find homeless folk finding shelter there. There are still a lot of mentally ill and/or addicted who don't want to enter the current system. The buildings are very accessable and it's cold outside. Brentwood and Central Islip have many homeless folk. So yes, there may be someone following you - they probably want a dollar.

hehe, I kind of wish I hadnt of looked at these shot, kinda ruined the insane fantasy I had in my head about the interior of this building, its such a contrast to the grand exterior

now im dissapointed, not in the shot, just the interior

This is a whole new level of....ummmm.....dammit I cant think of a suitable word, this is just amazing!! the definitive shot of this gallery in my opinion!

Definately agree that it looks like an old horror pic! Love it! I just wish you couldve got inside, imagine what it couldve been like!!
