To Colleen : This is not a restraint. Please browse through the other comments. At least two people have stated what this was, and what it is still used for. It is the sling for a hoyer lift. Again, it is not a restraint. If you truely were a nurse, you might know this especially if you have worked in a retirement home.

Great lobby! Love the hanging lights, circa 80's. I wish this place was still opened....it has a mysterious, haunting quality about it; like going back in time...

The 80's had the best music and style of clothing! It was a fun, happy time in history where classy discotheques ruled! : )

Those tags are not recent, I used to have one of those lil marking labeling things when I was little and i loved it! You set the dial to the letters you wanted then pressed the lil handle and out would come whatever you put it to say.. the letters were .. not sure of the right work.. not stamped but embedded maybe..

Is it possible to visit the abandoned park these days, in 2010? Or is it considered tresspassing?

THE WALKING STICK

I just was there 5 days ago and saw this table iam surprised it is still sitting there.What a difference from almost a month ago when we were there exploring,one building which was beautiful inside and out was destroyed by fire again we read that it happened august 3rd on a tuesday so now that building and the two surrounding buildings are really boarded up good!!! I believe now that is two buildings this summer now destroyed by a mystery fire? It just makes us so mad that people are doing this to a harmless place that just sits there not hurting anyone,there is so much sadness there and this just makes it worse! What is happening to our society it is really a shame.

THE WALKING STICK

This machine is on the third floor as you walk down the hall it is on the right in the room beware though with caution the first door to the right as soon as you enter the third floor there is a hugh star spray painted on the floor with 666 written all over it!! I dont no what actually goes on in there at night but just the feeling as you enter the room you dont get a good feeling at all!!! As we left that room to explore more we heard footsteps behind us and it sounded like it was coming out of that room,we just felt as if it was not good so we all left,the feeling was like you could hardly breathe and we all felt dizzy,the air was so thick but as soon as you walked out it felt better,We could not believe that there are jerks actually going in there and practicing that kind of crap!!! Are you really that screwed up or really that bored? that is just asking for problems...The hospital was boarded up again but it was taking back down,we believe that what there doing in that room is being done at night,so beware ghost hunters you dont want to meet up with some lunatics!!

That stair well picture is pretty even now. But when I bounced poor John down those stairs in the summer of '63 and he had to go away that was a bad day for me. I'm sorry to John's family .
