the color is just great in this one. first fading tan, then further down a pink hue, and the blue room at the end just makes the picture. that room looks so inviting compared to the rest of the pic, haha i'd be running towards that last room!

wow, for an abandoned building this place is in good shape. all that marble makes the place look quite elegant. Motts, just wondering, I'm sure you've been asked this before but haven't you ever been bagged for going into these places, and if so how many times? And what happened, did you get arrested or let you off with a warning maybe?

I'm so glad I stumbled upon this site, I visited once and nearly didnt come back, but I found it by accident in my history, so I came back and now you can't get rid of me!

If you use the dry powder ones outside in the wind they're evil! That stuff kills when you get it in your eyes! The foam and Co2 ones are fun though and water is good for soaking people!

I posted on a previous picture that a brick from Danvers was going for $26 on e-bay, plus $19.50 shipping.

I absolutely agree with Jules this did not have to happen. AvalonBay is the company that bought the property and have demolished almost all of the site. So, I hope they go bankrupt and that the place makes no money for them. They could have used the entire Kirkbride building for a museum or art museum or whatever. It just goes to show that money talks -- and you know what walks. It disgusts me entirely.

This is one of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen. At least we have this to hold on to, since it no longer exists. Alas.

I have this photo as my wallpaper on my computer at work. I get so sad when I see this and know it no longer exists. Bye the way, I noticed recently that a brick from the demolition was going for $26.00 on e-bay. Some things never fail to amaze me.
