Who built this awful place, Walmart?

Dumped over to the other side. Where are you little soul?

Most of the hospitals I worked at had metal doors or one peice wooden doors. This kind of fancy door with panels fakes me out. It displays the slinter factor.

oh my god! It's absolutely amazing! It's breathtaking! Wallpaper please! please!

Amen. I work with a dozen people right now who could scale that without a backward glance. There's toe holds EVERYWHERE! 8`-)

Interesting how the paint is peeling so dramatically in the places where people would have brushed against the walls and left sweat and oil from their skin. If not cleaned thoroughly later coats of paint might fail there first. Or it could just be the nicks and scratches letting moisture in. Maybe there is evidence of humanity in the very patterns of decay?

Andy - Never underestimate those that do not think linear.

Damn even the top windows were caged! Now how the hell is someone gonna reach the top windows?

Great photo. It really makes you think about mental illnesses, and how the patient must face their illness once they come to terms with it.

Wonderfully amazing photos. This is just amazing!

I find this quite disturbing...

Wow... isn't it strange the way the minds plays with you? Damn. O_O

I feel the same way as Jessica.

Wow... that [thing] peeking out from behind the wood part is F-R-E-A-K-Y. -shudders-
