Yeah I think it was a small college film, and Ford filmed a truck commercial on the property in the 1990's.

Maybe there was a light at the end of each of those lines running down above each door for that purpose....?

I work part time at an elementary school, custodial. It was built in '49, and almost the entire building was built with those same exact cinder blocks, color and all....

Nice....Looks a bit more contemporary, looking at the windows. Do you know when it was built? Was it added on later? Am I way off base?

Directly above the pile there's a light fixture above the arch; it's shadowed, but I bet there's a bird's nest built up there. So, I cast my vote for bird poop.

It looks like they're cracking their neck.

Nice to see those curtains and dividers. The stalls are rudimentary, but they'd have afforded some privacy...

Rch, I couldn't have put it better... "eyses that no longer see"... I was looking at the empty window shots, and thought about how empty the eyes were, but the words didn't come up.

Nicely composed.

Motts, you mentioned something about a movie here. Was there?

A great set. Thank you very much for sharing...

I'm truely speechless. I can't keep my eyes off them.

I would if I were locking up this place for the last time - a note saying 'Unlucky'....

;-)

The place itself gives a sense of fear. But when you find something from a patient it brings a true sense of sorrow for their suffering. A understanding for their pain.....

Looks like a gurl - albeit one with three arms! Am I right?
