where are you lynn, we need your input.

Reminds me a bit of the twins in 'The Shining'....

"Come play with us...."

Those are some sweet looking shower stalls,better looking than the tile ones you see in other hospitals...Just needsto be cleaned up some and voila,just like new!

There were doors in another place with this cut-out; may be it was also for ventilation, not passing food in, and the grate taken away.
Awesome find! The pictures you share give me so much to ponder and think about. It is very nice, indeed! May you always be well is my daily wish, and i thank you, too.

The lone hair-dryer FTW! They were left behind, like the chairs, all over these abandoned sites. They did have their hair fixed, nice thought.
Wonderful shot; book on the floor and the reflection in the mirror, and that cerulean BLUE, even the pipe painted. Like a lot! May you always be well and stay in focus.

If it's Latin it translates to " [You] Go behind the Sun [and]..." Maybe some uplifting quote along the lines of 'after the rain, sun'? Interesting though...

Well that's creepy!

As far as murals in these old hospitals go, this is probably the least creepy of all the ones I've seen so far >.<

Il bet those old light ballasts contain PCBs now there finding high levels in caulking around windows & doors.

That blue and wood chair looks like some of the ones we had in the lounge area of my dorm floor my first year of college.

That looks small, like a childs??
Creepy though!

found this pdf version of the manual for the Studiomaster II.

I fully understand and agree with motts for not taking from these places but him being a photographer that must still have been tempting.

Looks nothing like a 'Banksy', his creations depict irony. Besides, regardless of him now making money from what he does, he was still what most of us Urbexers despise........a graffiti vandal.

yea, these totally got tangled in your hair, my mother would always try to curl my and my sisters stick straight hair - i remember trying to sleep with them digging into my head; can still feel it----OW! and if you tried to pull them out by your little self you tore hair out of your head, I imagine the residents would get fixed up for visiting days only

ohh man, seeing them chairs dragged me back to High school. There was a classroom near the Wood Shop that stored all the broken chairs so Maintenance could cobble chairs together- you'd get red seats with blue backs...
