You're living my dream, I wish I could do what you do. It all started with a few trips to kppc and now for the past 5 years exploring these places is the only thing I can't seem to shake from my mind

I could sit there and read those forever. It would be so surreal, getting a glimpse into the lives of thousands who've been long forgotten by most everyone

i dont want this place torn downit would be sad

to be honest. this looks like the entrance to a military prison.

FOOD FIGHT!!!!!

i'll bet it would have been amazing in there.

WOW, Byberry must have really made an impression on you. I helped clear the buildings while it was being demolished. That's where I got my interest in abandoned State facilities.

those are disposalble diapers, they could have gone to shelters.

for some reason, this picture and the caption really make me somber. nice shot.

Well the reason a lot of recently abandoned places have the electricity on is so that vandals don't removed all the copper wiring. This might be hinting that this place is not totally dead... just waiting maybe, for the next job.

i have recently traveled here with three friends and we snuck inside and explored the entire building is was fascinating. We were scared shitlles, but it was a great expirience.

Was that one of those huge ones? i found one that still had air in this big supply room in the power plant.

"receiving vault" by its self gave me the creeps, but i have to agree with Noah it all seems like a bit much.

First thing I thought was "hmm now I could see this in a Saw movie"

Wallpaper for sure.

The fact that it was open would have me running.

Motts you sir have an artistic eye that i would kill to have when it comes to photography.

Keep up the awesome work!

Thats seems like an awful lot to have to keep track of.

Awesome picture! the colors really make this stand out., and I wonder what happened to that wall.

It also kinda reminds me of the game condemned.

I grew up in South Bend. The town is full of "fallout shelters". Supposedly, during the cold war, missiles were aimed at the town because of its strong manufacturing ability.

I'd hate to walk down that alone at night, only 2 ways out...

Has anyone ever played Bioshock on the xbox?....

I grew up in the next town and actually lived up the street from the hospital for nine years. The place was shut down in the 70s when civil liberties groups filed lawsuits across the country. Instead of just warehousing the mentally ill, they were supposed to receive outpatioent services and live normal lives. So the hospitals emptied out. It didn't work out as planned and many of the former patients became the homeless. They wandered Norwich and every other city and town across the USA. I know a woman who was at Norwich Hospital for killing her husband. The hospital was used for those found to be "innocent by reason of insanity" but not considered a violent risk. Connecticut had a different institution for that. The hospital is really prime real estate that is just left to rot. Unfortunately, electrotherapy and ice baths were not torture; they were actually considered helpful therapy at the time. Just like in another age they might have drilled holes in their heads to let the demons out.

The architecture is beautiful but it really is a sad place.

Great shot. Really enjoyed all of your posts from the UK - fantastic work.
