Why on earth would they create these "little" rooms? What exactly was their purpose?

You just don't see buildings like this anymore and if they keep going like they are, we never will.

Yes, I believe this is where they walked into building and near where their cars were parked. Alot of shots from this area in the movie.

This picture almost takes my breath away. Too bad it probably isn't there anymore.

Sorry, I meant beams. : )

I can remember the old attic when I was a kid. The steps were real steep and had a sharp curve to them at the bottom. You could see all the open beans in the ceiling and the walls. And the roof had a very sharp pitch to it that you had to duck your head at some places. As a kid, I used to be scared to go up there.

I don't even want to think what this spot looks like now. I'd probably be sick.

Right now I'm reading a book on Danver's and I just had to come back to this site and look at the pictures. Probably by now, everything's gone; am I right?

I like the wood sticking dagger points into the shot.

the sink/cabinet hanging there is a nice touch.

the spires sold for $20,000 EACH by the way

i drove by there tonight and there are only 3 buildings left... the center admin building and 2 of the wings on each side... all of the others have been torn down.... it's really sad... they sold the spires for $20,000 and they were selling the slate on the roof for $2 million... i only know that because i worked for a stone yard that almost bought it all

The name is Ann Hanslin. I enlarged the photo and changed the contrast around until i could read it.

Come and play with us Danny!
Forever and ever and ever.

This is an older post, but from what I can gather (Big Ed?) This looks like A-2 or 3?
