3 Alarms--

FOXBOROUGH, MA Jul 14) : Around 12:30 PM The Foxborough Fire Department received several phone calls reporting a fire at the former Foxborough State Hospital on Chestnut Street. The former hospital is in the process of being demolished, and construction crews were on scene. Three alarms were needed to control the fire. The heat hampered the firefighters and rehab areas were set up. Flying brands started a fire in an adjacent section of the hospital and was controlled by mutual aide crews. At the time of this article the fire is still under investigation.

Motts, I truly believe your idea of a bar with a morgue ambiance is simply genuis! You should seek the advice of a financial advisor to assist you with that. My financial advisor was fantastic when I pursued owning my own funeral home.

We have sinks like that in the football stadium at my college. People have a terrible habit of wadding up paper towels and dropping them in.

The lighting is quite sub-par for any medical procedure. The tubs and other related remnants together with the feasibility of manuvering a disabled person to get his/her head into this hole for no real reason suggests this is a towel room.

I love the glass blocks and shiny green tiles. It will be interesting to find out what this was actually used for.
