thank you, it really was the heart of
Millbrook for many years.it is true, alot
of the laborers who built this edifice
came from abroad. specifically the stone
masons, almost all of whom worked
for Mead & Taft, of Cornwall on the Hudson, who were the principal
contractors on Halcyon, as well as many,
many other structures in Millbrook. There
was so much work for these talented craftsmen that many stayed here, built
homes and thriving businesses of their
own. for me to label them as laborers is
almost an insult, they were really like
artists. one hopeful note: the rezoning
of the bennet /halcyon property includes a mandate that the STONEWORK of
halcyon must be preserved regardless
of whatever else is demolished. this
almost makes no sense, but it is a
consolation that at least this aspect of
these workmen's craft will endure in some form...
Hey, would'nt you say these rooftops are way to easy to jump off of. Not good for the depressed. I know I'd be tempted.

AR, GE makes electrical equipment, that's why it would say GE on them. They're one of about three main companies for switchgear etc. But where do you see GE on them? The yellow logo looks like Square-D (one of the other big 3).

Actually, I don't think I really want to know what kind of room this was; especially after knowing some of the history of Pennhurst.
