Franklin Roosevelt from Annie! "Sing Elenore, it's an order from your commander in chief!"

Its the truth, not twisted logic, abandoned buildings get torn down. So therefore taking items from them is not wrong

it would be amazing if you could show before and after shots of all these ships, maybe even a short documentary. i would absolutely buy it in a heartbeat.

I just checked ebay (check this post date), and there is a slime-ball out there selling bricks from this place (and is pleading for "no negative feedback").

I just left him an email telling him in no uncertain terms what I thought of him and his profit-making venture.

Am I pissed-off? In a word: yes. In two words: Hell yes!

i wonder who and when was the last person to paint that door, i know weird. thats just what i think of when i see this. You know, what was he thinking, missing his girl, wife, daughter, mad at his supervisor, and now what does it matter. wonder where he is

Thats definately a creepy shot.

Are these ships sunk here on purpose or do you just anchor them and let them do their own thing?

You are truly blessed, with either skill, luck or just a really good camera i know not. Probobly the former. AWESOME shots man. sick.

I dunno, everyone...

I can't "see" a bunch of patients dancing and living it up here. What I see in my minds eye are a bunch of half-alive patients being wheeled out to this pavillion by a well-meaning staff member, and then spending the evening staring blankly off into the distance as the band plays on.

To me this is the most profound and saddest picture I've seen on this site.

Whats cool is the water just covering the floor. whats that in the background?

Back in college (mid '80's) I had a job working in a group home for autistic people. One of the by-products, or symptoms, of autism is self-mutilation, and we had a patient who frequently banged his head against the walls.

One day he discovered that the *corners* of the walls produced much better results....

I can't believe that none of you have commented on the "wall shark" on the left...

(Shades of "SNL")

cool, that look's like she's been there a looooooooong time!

And where does the lightbulb go?

cool site motts, kings park has also intrigued me for a long time, is there any other sites that explore long islands abandoned buildings?
