Attention to detail.

Amazing vaulted brick work.

And, if the tree fits.....

At one time people bustled about in there routinely going about thier day.

Very cozy

That transom (vasistas) is an update?

Can you imagine working on that?

Great; an indoor road.

How did they do that?

That just scares me for some reason

Motts,... you have stated that floor is solid.

And,... I have heard some people say that if a building has a solid foundation, that anyone can renovate an old building.

Obviously,... in this photograph this picture does show that this floor is solid... so has anyone thought about reopening this building for 21st Century business purposes... ?

Probably the only reason why someone decided to sketch this colorful 1940's bar room picture is because there are a lot of Americans that do have their favorite bar that they do enjoy drinking and talking to their friends in it (bar).

That individual that was drawing this picture may have become so emotionally distraught of being a patient at that hospital for possibly a long period of time, and he or she may have wanted to return to or to remind themselves of their favorite neighborhood bar that they (hospital patient) wanted to draw that picture as another form of a psychological escape or to try to help themselves to relax in their medical environment.

Are those bricks man made (instead of being processed in a 20th Century factory)... ?

I have seen 19th Century man made bricks and these bricks that are in that above photograph do seem to be man made.

This is beautiful! I love the little stripe of purple (blue?) along the wall.

named it perfect, so beautiful
