Like The Non, this is my first post on your site Motts. Unlike The Non, I have been enjoying this site for nearly 3 years now. Your photos are incredible, and they make the long neglected structures that many would call "ugly" look absolutely beautiful. I think its outstanding that you have immortilized so many of these "forgotten" places. The architecture and design of many of these places will never be seen again, for obvious reasons regarding many of the institutions. Society has slowly realized that people with a mental illness or developmental disability are still people, and don't deserve to be packed into these institutions because it's convenient. It's appauling to hear the accounts of neglect and abuse that have come to light over the years. Whats more upsetting are the countless incidents that no one ever knew of. Imagine the atrocities these buildings could tell us if they could speak..... Great pictures Motts, I'd like to think some of them would tell good stories too.

This is an excellent shot Motts. Cant help but wonder why this hospital has soooo many wheelchairs left behind. Didnt these patients need them when they left or the place closed its doors?
