Large population?

I'm wondering why so many mental hospitals were built here in massachusetts? I remember the old Boston State Hospital , it was emormous
but, from what I can recall parts where shut down during the 80's due to funding cuts.

My shower curtain is really gross and that scares me too.

=8-o

I think this shows the past of the old northampton asylum it sooooooo cool I love it
HOLLA

this place is really scary because there is all these ghost and goblins around I'll scream if I see one because I am really scared of all of this because it's really gross

I think this place is a really cool place for peple to go to go if you are really interested in the history of the old Northampton asylum its really a creepy place

Está exitante x3 ~

seriously, every time i go here, i think i'm going to wear my respirator the whole time...i'm god damn scared of this asbestos business now...

were these particular halls made extra wide to accomodate wheelchairs? just a thought

yea! the mineral deposits were straaaange, any idea what kind of compound that could be?

Ah, and all the theater windows are now gutted. How sad, but it did give that part of the building a different vibe...in a good way

I don't believe the stripe is there any more. The same for the chairs. They have really come along with cleaning the place out, although there were still several abandoned pianos in the stairwells...

i really love this nphoto mostlymbecause you can tell and feel the emotion in this without even seeing her face
