You don't think that's a compliment, Lynne? I have tried to cultivate the smartass in myself for years! I'm extremely proud of myself.

Actually, I grew up in the area and my parents were around when it was still in use. There were quite a few patients with psychiatric issues here as well from what I understand. Just chiming in...!

Yeah the tunnels and basements were pretty flooded and not very photogenic, so I don't have any photos down there except for the children's morgue.

Hey! I'm one of the vertically challenged. Do they have a short building for short adults, as well?

Is that the building for tall adults?

Just asking.

It's in the back of the tall adult building.
Agreed. I've seen more than a couple of crematoria (at cemeteries and so on) and they NEVER have chimneys like that, usually they're shoert, stubby and well-hidden by the roof of the building, disguised as a tower etc.

I'd imagine that relatives wouldn't really want to see a huge factory-style stack dominating the skyline and reminding them of the exact fate of their loved ones' remains.

People's images of crematoria seem to largely stem from images of Nazi death camps, which I suppose would have had those big chimneys to put the fear of God into those sent to them :-(
