I like this room. Has feeling. Looked to be sunny and bright in its hayday. Maybe it could have been for special visitors, like special doctors and they needed place to stay while visiting instead of have pay roam and board at a motel or bed and breakfast. Just a thought.

And Mottts I am sincerely hooked to your site. I have tried just this morning to visit others of abandoned places, and none can hold the candle to yours. Yours is awesome and you give details of every pic you make. That makes me understand more about the pic. Thanks much.

This tease...if its called a "cat walk" where is the cat that walks it? I know what it is, but it so weird how some things have names. This makes me think of the Titanic for some reason...mayube because of the giant boiler rooms on the ship.

i was strapped down in a gurney like this!!!

Beautiful piece and photo.

It is kinda sad to look at this pic and think of a Friday night with all the patients together. You know that they hated playing the game, but this is all they had for fun

If I was to walk into an abandoned building and see this, the only thing you would see that proved I was there would be a urine trail leading to the exit!

They should recycle all these books if they are no longer any good. Why do they leave them behind?

Oh man I LOVE THIS FIREPLACE! Looks like you could throw some logs in there and read a book in front of it

Ladies and gentlemen.....THE DOORS

With this pic its like you close your eyes and you can hear the people and hear the music from the band

Hey Motts, that must have scared the crap out of you when you first saw it

Hmmmm think it is time that they change their brushes. Give you $5 to use one of those

This is so deco I love it!

i am with both of u. it does seem like things were left in a hurry. and there is a sense of lonliness and despair i think

i would spend forever in there! i wonder y alot of these places leave all those books and files? especially about patients, isn't there some kind of law or rule about that?
