It does look to be a very sound building from the outside.
Is that some sort of fencing or wire mesh around the arched openings at the top? Just wondering if that was an atrium up there.

They give off such a nice light on the opposite wall.

That chair reminds me of the teachers chairs back in the day at my
elementary school. Very sturdy and well built but I would think they are
a bit too hard on the tushy after awhile - lol.

That looks like a very tall ladder. Bad luck to walk underneath!!

A new gallery - Hooray!!!
Interesting photo. It has an almost post-apocalyptic feel to it.
Very cool :-)

That center section has the look of a mauseleum.

My third or fourth time through the gallery and I have noticed several of the rooms have a path of tiles like this through them so I conclude that this was intentional.

Gorgeous Thanks for taking photos using different techniques. It makes me stop and look harder.

Doesn't look like there was much privacy. No indication of curtains for around the beds and those short and scarce walls wouldn't have provided much. Wonder where the patient's belongings were kept.
