Nice tower. Could fhis be another Carcosa?

Yes it's being restored and rented out for ghost hunting and other kinds of events: http://www.trans-alleghenylunaticasylum.com/

Empathically, Looks Like a Waiting Room Of Some Type, Right Side 2 Close CutAways & 2 Windows Of Possible office on Other Side

Well At Least They Had to Clean It Up, Most Cops Are ABOVE The Laws

So Huge! Is Any-Thing Going On Inside Nowdays Besides Giving The Security Guards a Job? & Serious Question.

So Huge, & So Architectural, & So Long To Build,... & Wasted Now.

Definately an amazing view

Looks interesting to me

Such a pretty entrance

I have been to Weston many times. If i'm not mistaken, this was kinda two rooms. There was a couple with aides. And this was their "home". They were quarantined to these rooms At the time, little to nothing was known about aides. How it was transmitted etc. So, this became their life. They were never allowed into the public. Sad....

Amazing that back in the day such architecture was seen as beautiful aesthetic, wealth and prestige as though the patient's were in good hands and well looked after. Now we identify it as something different; something somewhat vulgar, macabre and haunting. It's funny how values change.

These are the shots I strive to take. I love the overpowering sense that nature will always take over what was rightfully hers.

The light creates an inspiring focal point for hope in the surrounding abandoment. Nice shot.

I've stayed in a hotel in PA that had the same bath. I think the sea shell shelves are just décor...something festive for such a macabre place. Really cool pic.

I noticed something else... It looks like there are glue marks on the wooden stall thing to the right of the tub... Wonder what was there...
