Poignant. Beautiful photo.

Surprised no one took it for scrap. Bet those made noise when they came down.

Wow congrats Motts!

There is one piece of paint that almost looks like it has numbers on it near the top of the door.

Still beautiful in spite of the mud and dirt.

What were you supposed to be cautious of?

The same linoleum is in the kitchen at my parents' house. Interesting.

Thanks! Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to check out Ft. McClellan, as it had to be a pretty quick drive from Atlanta to NOLA, but it's on my map.

Yep I was able to explore the original Bryce Hospital, although it wasn't easy. I believe the university is renovating it these days.

10,000 pics posted, what a milestone Tom! And you've really been booking out the new sets lately, merry Christmas for us:) The variety of locations and genres is great also. On the subject of Alabama, have you ever toured the abandoned Army barracks in Ft. McClellan? My dad was in boot camp there in '81 and saw it again back in '02 or '03 and said it was all abandoned. He Didn't have a camera but I would love to see it too, and so would Dad again.

Overwhelmingly massive goodness what a scene - lightning struck?

I believe this place was built in the late 1800's. It's "sister" state hospital is correctly known as "Old Bryce" mental institute and located on the campus of Univ of Tuscaloosa. That is one creepy looking place! Were you all able to get in there? They used to let paranormal teams in do investigations but that stopped and the place is heavily patrolled now. It's been my dream to be able to get in there, at least to walk around and see the place.

Those huge columns - all looks so forlorn - Google Earth is OK, trees awesome, indeed - but no Steet View yet -
Another Gallery!!!! - Thank you so much - early x-mas gift FTW.
(am stressed, hahahaha - no just kidding...am joyful.)

Poor building looks nothing like this now. Very eerie out there at night, looking up at this huge building, looming in the darkness.

Motts, I am familiar with the S.D Allen nursing home that sits next door. I know you don't believe in the paranormal, but my team and I have gotten some of the most incredible evidence ever from that place and it's nowhere near the size of the Jemision bldg. Unreal experiences!

But thanks for doing a location in my neck of the woods! Hope we get to see more from AL!

This is almost the place I was standing in broad daylight and snapping photos of this side of the building. Went back to review and saw a transparent figure of what appeared to be a nurse in a white hat and uniform! Couldn't believe my eyes but it was there, clear as day.

By the way, it sure does look like a figure in that 2nd floor, 4th window from the left!

What a sad but beautiful picture
