I remember walking down these very narrow hallways...when people were coming the opposite way it was a tight squeeze. These halls always seemed so creepy..esp going down to the lower floors

This is sickening...Im guessing..teenagers with Nothing better to do than destroy things that are none of there business. I guess since I was in training at Broadacres and saw 1st hand how sad and lonley so many of the elderly people seemed to be..its always made me angry to see what the mindless..heartless jerks do.

wow this taks me back!!!!!!!! This area here is where the patients would sit..either in their wheelchairs or be assited to a couch or single chair to sit..look out of the window or listen to the tv...the room had plants on tables and pictures on the walls....wasnt a large room at all. but was very bright and airy

OMG I also remember this area....i used to push wheelchairs with patients in them to this area of the hospital...most would just sit there with a a stare on their faces...almost not even looking at anything at all..just so sad......i also remember hearing that MANY of the patients familys did not visit them as much as they once did........... :(

I spent 6 yrs in the KSH childrens unit, as a patient. It opened about 1960, We were told that the building was origionally the Mary Muff TB hospital. We were very well treated, and I I attended Kazoo Central HS while a patient. This is not the building I lived in, is anyone familiar with the Mary Muff building?
