The toilet looks like a first generation "Standard" Glenco from the '60s or a second generation "Standard" Instanto from the late '50s to the '60s.

Based on the base, stem, and bowl of the toilet, I'm pretty sure that this toilet was made by Crane from the '30s to the '60s. It's hard to determine the model of the toilet without seeing the inside of the bowl, but I'm guessing that this toilet is a Santon. It could also be a Saneto or Whirlton. Do you remember the logo stamped on the toilet?

I believe that the urinal is a "Standard" Modesto. The Modesto is a different model than the "Standard" Madstone which looked really similar and seemed more popular. The brand "Standard" is today's American Standard.

I recognize that machine, I had many EEGs done as a child

How do the birds get in? The windows seem to be intact.

Reminds me of cancer.

I work with children with autism. This building is sad.

I just wonder who passed through those doors.

Motts, thank you for recording these images. I grew up in Buffalo and live close to Rochester. I often wonder what is behind the face of abandoned buildings. Thank you for providing a snapshot of what lies beyond. And as a person who once worked as a chemical technician at Eastman Kodak, I appreciate the depth of the pictures.

Thanks, Peg. I live a suburb of Rochester. Sometimes, when I drive by these old buildings, I see lights on in some of the halls of the 15 floor building. FYI: There is a bowling alley in the lower level of one of the abandoned buildings.

Yeah, come to think of it, coloring in Abraham Lincoln just doesn't sound like a lot of fun.

Well, maybe gurney is the wrong word. Food cart? Eh, it all the same thing really...

Looks like "220V" is written on the wall, indicating the voltage for the outlet that was there. Probably for a heavy duty sterilizer machine.

It's getting tougher to remember details Mike, but I do hold a lot of these trips pretty well in my memory; they're some of the best experiences of my life. This website is really my notebook, in a way...

Cool thanks! It saddens me that I have removed the "Verden" pseudonym, as there's nothing left there anymore :(
