404 Comments for Jackson Sanatorium

Imagine that the visitors to this once glorious resort could have never pictured it sitting in this decline.

So much for "Completely Fireproof," as stated in one of the ads.

Arches... rounded brick ceilings... lovely!

I like shots like this. Spectacular beauty framed by the broken memoirs of man's organization.

@pegasus - LOL!!!

Dansville... Hmmm... I found where I want to live!! (maybe)

I want to breathe deep of the cleansing air... assuming the mold spores and dust are still behind me in the building. :-)

Gutted and featureless, but still appealing and enthralling to us urb-ex geeks (as my spouse refers to us).

If these crumbling walls could speak to us, what would they say of the decades of visitors, rich and famous, infirm and traumatized, seeking relaxation or restoration... so much history in these gorgeous lines.

Your staircase shots are always astonishing.

Beauty!! This seemed the perfect, idyllic setting for a restorative sanatorium. Even now, as a moldering hulk lounging upon the hill, the building still speaks of tranquility, calm and natural grace.

Great shot Motts, would make a fantastic wallpaper. Also I agree with you Matt it does look like a sunken ship.

Great contrast of course, the yellow against the browns and grays.

Back then it was called and "Ice Box" =)

Looks like some kind of horrific monster.

A soap dispenser perhaps?

I think the forgot about gravity and decay when they built this.
