Wow...Sorta makes the situation seem very desolate and hopless. I wonder if it was any lighter/better when there was inmates in there.

what did the inside of the cells look like, it seems they were like isolation blocks, cna't get out, can't see sorta thing. Odd architechture in this building for sure though.

I suppose when the offices were in there they altered things a bit.

Thought they were going to fix this place up? What are they waiting for?? This will eventually be torn down, too; watch what I tell you. They won't have the funds to fix it up because it will cost too much.

All I can say is wow! You can tour the Eastern Pennatentiary (don't know if I spelled that right), near Philly. They have a cell there that Al Capone stayed in.
