Very dungeonesque, don't you think?

Carriage from Rosemary's Baby?

I got you all beat. In my jr. high school we had communal showers... but the plumbing came up through "posts" in the center of the room - not the walls. The posts had something like 6 shower heads on it. You didn't get the luxury of staring at the wall while you showered... you just had other people to your sides and in front of you. As if the phallic shower heads weren't bad enough... it wasn't a gentle shower of water that came out - it was a razor sharp stream of water. Quite unplesant.

Thease engines were from the rebuild program and was done by AMG.They were sold scrap most went to one guy who sold them for 300-400 each.I know I had some(6).I know where some are but not for sale

Mebbe to burn all the bodies? ;-)

The windows in the end of the clestory (or whatever) seem to have been forced out from the inside. I wonder what caused that?

Thank you, thank you, Jason, for pointing this out! Yes, you are absolutely correct.

Thanks! I also know from another site that the laundry building is gone, along with the superintendants house, but i didnt know about the chapel. I'm looking foward to more pics!

The whole presentation sort of reminds me of the many German Burgen (Fortresses, or Castles) I visited back in the early 1970s. When I came back stateside in 1975, I was stationed in Upstate NY and didn't know there was such a place nearby!

Maybe its just me... but I couldn't imagine fireplaces in institutional buildings being used very much.

Yup, thats yer standard corpse grinder. Looks like the Hobart '48 model... possibly '47.

perhaps it is the curve, or simply the railing, but these stairs, very simple invention, have more DEPTH to them than my wee brain can comprehend

the light through the bottom in this shot puts me in mind of a cabinet against a window or some other wholly unmoveable furniture, which only adds to the trapped feeling.

i, too, upon seeing this photo, was startled by the obviously agitating subject matter. quite a contrast to a guitar playing gentleman...

I believe Lynne would tell us that this is the "rack" that patients are strapped to for their Chinese Water "Treatment"
