Frankly, this photo freaks me out!!

Well, Parker, you could fly to New York, rent a kayak, find out where the heck this place is, load up your digital camera with lots and lots of batteries and storage, and knock yourself out, now couldn't you?

half empty? or half full?

the bars look slimy

I do agree with you for the most part, especially in regards to the fact that this follows guidelines for a masonic temple. But as a true agnostic, I can't ignore the fact that ANYTHING is possible and I can't dismiss the possibility, no matter how small, that this was just a treat for the architect(but I would bet against it if I were a betting man). You have alot of really good ideas and after reading your input I did as much research on the Freemasons as I could, and I agree that this room was almost deffinatly created for masonic reasons.

Amazing shot. i really like the way you seem to be looking upi at the windows. great lines by the way.

looks like freddy's boiler room

That's an interesting blotch on the ceiling. Almost looks deliberate.

Mmm Christmas Blessings

it's quite possible this was PY-8, the USS Dispatch which was a pressed into service in WW1 as a coastal anti-sub ship...

i got past the asylum security but LongIslands finest went out of their way to drag me and my girl outta the building. spent a whole night at the precint just to get a $200 ticket and a court date. fcuk da police!!

I went their with some friends and walked all around the first floor but i didnt see anything freaky except for the cops waiting for me at the front door. According to the officer who arrested us, they constantly bag kids for trespassing. He also told us that he made this kid piss himself because he patrols the building sometimes without a flash light. Probably bull.

Theirs nothing haunting about the building, i actually walked through out one of the abandoned buildings( the one with the 2 big trees by the door) with some friends and the only haunting thing inside was the police officer who arrested us for tresspassing. But yeah you should definitely check it out from the outside at night , its freaky

a Liberty Ship perhaps?

Once a ship is up on a reef like that, you get so many holes in the bottom that it is both incredibly expensive and dangerous to attempt to move it. You have to have a number of powerd pumps on board and to plug or weld each hole. Also, as you move the ship, it will twist and continue to break apart. As it floats, new holes will open. Add time and deterioration of the hull structure and you can forget it.

Finally, once it's been there a while, it gets so deeply buried that it becomes even harder to move.

Unless it is a hazard to navigation or to the environment , I don't think it will get moved. The only way to remove this would be to cut it up a piece at a time by hand and haul it away ... Bangladesh style. And there, the ships dry out at low tide. I don't know if this one does.
