Wow... This particular shot is cool, looking a little like the aftermath of a combat engagement or a bombing run... Still quite interesting and nicely composited nonetheless...

This is really sad they were going to save this but it bunt down and the were going to SAVE IT .This WAS hudson river state hospital its no more very sad

They could gut the inside and make condos and keep the beautiful structure and medical building its build like a fortress many layers of brick

These were removed and restored (gummed up from setting too long), then used at a drive-in theater in ohio for three years. Removed again because of digital and currently in safe storage.

This is beautiful.

This is one spooky shot!

If that was a real reflection, the windows in the bottom half would be upside down. I took art and painting courses in school and learned about reflections. Still, it is deceiving and mesmerizing at the same time. Something about collapsed floors that just fascinates me!

Amazing stuff. Where did you get the idea to go inside mental hospitals? As a former inpatient, the work really speaks to me. Dynamic, I love the contrast.

Where is this place I'm trying to find it
