The reason for the colors may be because they really didn't know that there was a relatinship between color and behaviors. Like Now blue is not allowed on psych wards because it has been found to cause depression so the use other colors. When you sign into the hospital it is writen in the addmmitting paper work from when I was admmitted for sleep clinic if for your safety of the safety of the staff we have the righ to use restraints. and that was for sleep study.

Is the water towers sister still in place across the valley at the site of the TB hospital? Did you go in thr tunnels? Rumor was the tunnel went across to the TB hospital and there was a bomb shelter in the valley between the two. I have been in the TB tunnels but didnt go far down them. Do you remember the TB hospital? They tore it down in the early 70's

Amazing work! I've been there before a few times, but I couldn't find a way in. It's so creepy at night. I wish I could have explored the inside, those kinds of things give me such a rush. I love it. Bravo Mr. Motts.

I put a picture on myspace that someone said was the small door to the morgue from the outside. I think it was in the courtyard, but I can't remember. Can anyone confirm?

This photo emanates the forboding strength and all the enveloping power that brings this ediface to life. It did have life of it's own imbued from the spirits that it contained from all the inhabitants of so many years. A fine shot.

Good choice with the black and white. I don't think it's a washroom because why would they need to lock the door while doing the laundry? The steamroom theory sounds good, but what kind of therapy involved putting patients in steamrooms?

the wooden (pecan) blocks were laid on top of concrete and were used to absorb oil, to provide a non-slip surface for foot and vehicle traffic and to also cushion the feet of standing workers. once they were too worn or oily, they could be easily replaced to create a new floor surface.
