I live about 15 - 20 minutes away from this place and i would LOVE to go in it some day but..... I'm a chicken shit and i've herd stories from people who have been brave enough to go in there. I am a huge abandoned building fan so this site is like the best thing ever to me lol.

"Claustrophobia" is the perfect name for this photo. Normally one would think blackness closing in, but these high pink walls with their weird bouncing light are like an optical straitjacket. Makes your breath tighten in your throat....

Thanks Lynne. I remember after the first study came out, a man in my city painted his house that color thinking that no one would break into it because they would calm down. Talk about ugly.

it did repaint it when it was found increased exposure would have the opposite effect. I'm sure the neighbors were happy.

I agree with silkster40z. Its really surprising to see this outside of the admin building.
I don't find this picture disturbing at all. It's because of all the light. There's even a light at the end of that long corridor. That hallway is like life itself, clawing your way throughout it.... it's all red and painful, but the room straight ahead is green which is one of the most calming colors. Still it indeed is claustrophobic but fascinating....

I keep waiting for a cloaked monster to come around the corner and peer at you. Beckoning you closer.....
That door looks like the one that leads to Norman Bates' basement in "Psycho"!

There was this beautiful blackn'gold safe at this abandoned building by the waterfront where I live. Closed though :(. I'm trying to remember the name, but all I come up with is "Buffalo Safe Co." which might not be it. I'm going back sometime and bringing my camera.
