Oh yes, there are the planters. The hanging lamps were removed in the mid-1990's. This pool really was gorgeous in its day.

Oh man, I used to swim in that pool as a kid..... in 1977 and again in 1982! It was such an elegant indoor pool back then with swanky futuristic (50's) hanging lamps, chaise lounges, and little tables with ashtrays everywhere... yes, you could smoke by the pool in those days! There were built in planters on the walls with lots of live foliage. The water return in the pool featured jets shooting across the pool from either side. It is hard to look at like this. It is even harder to imagine how nice it used to be if you only see it now!

Ohh! Beautiful shot motts!!! I think that is just amazing! You should consider taking a trip to a national park with that camera of yours.

Scary

The first Ice-O-Mat ice crusher was introduced in 1939. Evidently they were manufactured well into the 1950s when they were replaced by refrigerators with built-in ice crushers (and presumably the type of ice machines we are familiar with in hotels today). Some "retro" models are still being sold, apparently.

Wow. That's some pretty hard core decay, when plastic begins to disintegrate. I can imagine the insurance loss on this property was staggering.

Awesome picture. Simple, but incredibly eerie.

Babies chair problaby .... !!!!

What about a heavy metal festival .... !!!!

Geez .... this one seems a horror film ..... !!

Yeap ... good picture ....

Great picture .....

Well, it ain't the carpet ...

And yet, *still* cleaner than a public phone...

Wouldn't be surprised to see this make a total comback of sorts now that casino gambling has been legalized and is sprouting up in the Catskill region.
