Impressive craftsmanship....work you dont see anymore...a pump house like that today would just be concrete tilt panels and sheet metal roofing....no pride in building stuff anymore.

Hey thats what I do all day!....only not as cool of subjects as this is.

Very cool. It will be on my co-worker Ramon's wall soon I am sure of it!

Great Angle!

Cool New Pic's!! and good to see some of the same folks still here

Very Cool Building though!

Love the window. and there always has to be that lone chair......somewhere..

I love the arch's Those are really cool. To bad they will be turned into scrap

Wow New pics! and a great story as well Motts. Thanks for all the great stuff you bring us to view.

Great shots Motts. cant wait to see what else you found in the mother land. Keep up the great work!

Very cool find Motts. I love the details. Its all the stuff you just dont find anymore in our fast pace world. No one has the time for such things anymore....or enough cash to pay for that time.

Cool new pic's Mr. Motts! I ve been needing something to do at work! HA!

I am glad to see its in really good shape and almost untouched.

Thanks Henry L!! working 14 hours a day 6 days a week doesnt leave a lot of time for much else. Plus you learn lot more from talking (Typing in this case) to people than just watching TV or reading a book.

Navi: I have seen some nice art on the side of some rail cars and on the grafitti wall in Venice Beach. But most of what I see is wanna be gang crap painted on freeway walls and road signs and ally walls....no ART to it at all. Spray can ART can be pretty cool. but random Tagging is just that. tagging...
snazo: your wrong there...I was the asshole stuffing people into lockers and trash cans in high school. and yeah I guess your right I hate punk kids with spray paint that tag walls and anything they think should be there marking spots...they should just get a job and buy their own house that they can call their own and wont have to try to claim something they will never own becaus eit belongs to a community.

sian: Thanks....you figured it out!!! lol

~Me....I know about the joke....I have finally made it thru all the locations and all the comments.....know I am waiting for the new stuff!!!! I think you all are really cool (the regulars) and full of good insite and info. Plus its great to see what Mott's photos bring to different eyes. Just a testament to his great art.

The slots in the ceiling were to let the smoke out from the steam engine days. That way the area would not fill with smoke

This Is a awesome find!! WOW Its great...and its not messed up Its all ready to go in just a couple hours of clean up time!.....Motts this is where you doing this years christmas party right!!

Ahhh Very good Amy....but some guy would STILL miss and get it all over the floor anyway!

So what every became of that binder??

I Agree with you Acky!!
Plus walls are not for writting....paper is. I guess their mommy's let them write on the walls of their house....so they think its ok to do it to everyones house.
NOT!!

The door looks more like a barn door or a castle dungon door then a hospital door

Thats a real bummer!

We Have some pretty good sized ones out here (Arizona) ...and the cars last forever...well almost...you can find some even hanging out around the old mines & ghost towns...when they left they left it all behind also

Cool I will check them out for sure!

You mean you can do this faster!! Cool!

I think the "Morgue" would be a great party spot! Even better if it could be in one of the old Kirkbrides....hotel up top..killer club in the basement!
