I don't want to sound like a bitch but remember this school was opened in the early 1900, they didn't know what they were doing was hurting them!

so don't say it's inhumane or stuff like that, just remember they weren't as knowledgeable as we are now!
thanks

ps. that place is really cool if you ever get to go, just make sure you don't get caught!

Motts: Just found your site, these pictures are amazing! You do great work, it's good to keep the past alive even if you can only do it thru photographs. Thanks for doing this so scaredy-cats such as myself can see the inside of these great buildings!

There are a lot of old IBM Selectric typewriters in this picture -- if they were reconditioned, they would bring some big bucks -- people still DO use typewriters!!

This truly is a beautiful picture -- the color of the bricks and the casement work around the windows -- visually a stunner!!

This is such a wonderful picture but it makes me feel so melancholy -- those poor kids! The building is so beautiful but it just reeks of sadness. Bye the way Kelly, how do you like this bed!!??
