I agree with Anais. I think this space was last used as an office. Before that it might have been used as a playroom for children to come to visit with their parents who were in-patients here. Just a thought.

I bet that tile floor would look really nice, if cleaned up. And I still don't understand WHY all the drama? For example, Lucie Lou, ''But, don't you dare touch the bars...ZAP! fried.'' Seriously!? I've never known a mental hospital, past or present, to have electric fences or bars. Now I have known prisons to have electric fences. I just worry that even if you're joking around you could frighten someone to the point that they won't seek help even for depression, which can usually be treated out-patient nowadays.

I'm thinking that this place probably didn't have as much mold in it, and probably wasn't as gritty as this either, when there were patients here.

Okay. Forget all the drama! I just think this is one of your most dark & depressing photographs I've seen, Motts.

Nicely done, Motts!.....''Which way did they go? Have you seen them? I must find them for I am their leader!'' : )

Bedless...and, to me, this is dark and drab!

Is this a small room, Motts, or the end of a hallway? Anyway, I really like the shades of blue of the walls and the flooring! It's calming to me instead of dark looking.

Hmmm.....Very interesting, indeed!

Well, I'm obviously in the minority here, but I actually like this photo! Instead of creeping me out, it made me think of coming out of the darkness and entering into the light. So! Thanks for taking this shot, Motts!

Debbie, I really like all the arches in this place too! : )

The intact window is very purty! As for the orange paint (Part ll)...I'm speechless. (Gag!)

One word to describe the orange paint: Aaacckk!!!

Now one word to describe the stained-glass window: Aaahh!!

Enough said. : D

I think it's so awesome that the wisteria vine has not only found its way inside, but where its growing inside! Wouldn't it be so cool if someone with à green thumb, at our different churches, could train flowering tropical type vines like that to grow inside our sanctuaries near the top of the windows? I think it would be so pretty when the vines bloomed, and it would smell so-o-o-o good! Of course, if you're allergic to pollen... : (
