Motts,
I love the play of light and shadow here.
Back in the summer of 06, my best friend and I visited this place. My friend lived in upper Passic county only about a half hr's drive from this place( however he was familiar with the area, his mother having grown up in Haverstraw).
We mostly walked around the grounds and took pics like this one, of the facades of the buildings.( this was an impromptu exploration trip and neither of us were sufficiently clothed for UE). We DID enter a basement in one of the buildings, which house a variety of old beds, chairs ect.
Unfortunately,we didn;t make it back that summer or last.

Talk about a little slow on the up take! I've gone threw all of Mr. Motts's Shots on this site but somehow I don't remember noticing this one before! *LOL*

Guess that means its about time to look through them all again.

Great Stuff!

years ago there were no services available for the hanicapped ,mentally retarded , mentally ill,this is where alot of the people were put because they didnt know what to do with them. I know because I use to visit my aunt there , im glad shes in a safe home now.
We had those EXACT SAME clocks in one of my middle schools and in my junior high school in Illinois. That is funny.
Beautiful doors, absolutely gorgeous. A pity they were taken, since it was probably done by a private collector (or a total jerk) and I doubt they'll be seen again.
Hmmm I thought it was one of them old time micro fiche things.....
