Anytime someone comments on the colours in these places, saying horrible colour not very therapeutic, I wonder what would the colour need to be for you to call it therapeutic?

Red? Black? White? Creme? I can't think of any colour that would look therapeutic in these places, especially years after they have been abandoned.

Would you prefer a happy, cheerful design for a morgue?

The "Unexposed" is kind of like a metaphore for the facility, the facility has bee unexposed to life for 30 years.

great picture!

Your work is very much appreciated, and educational as there were things I was unaware of. Many Thanks.

so, you have to thank Ronnie Reagan for closing these places.
otherwise no pics.

Ive been in here many times, and also in every other building,,, i have studied all buildings and know just about anything about ladd... if you have any questions email me at cordoor89@tmail.com

From what I understand, a lot of bodies were burried on the grounds, out in the woods. There were a lot of deaths due to the experiments done on these poor people. There was also a lot of abuse that happened.

Thats so sad.

This has a small documentary and info about this place when it was operatinal

Why would there be an autopsy room, if someone passed they probably placed them in the morgue until they were taken elsewhere.

this shot broke my heart...

Motts you take wonderful pictures of these abandoned Places.

Doors, stairwells, the morgue, and now a lonely chair...all the great hallmarks of a Motts gallery masterpiece. Now if only we had a soap dispenser....
