Angel

Julia

How beautiful, a lot of work went into making that angel. Such a shame that people don't worship there. They should restore it and maybe move it to another location. So beautifully done, its a shame its abandoned!

Last Supper

Julia

Beatutiful painting. Suprised that no one has taken it over the years. It does have a very sacred meaning to it, maybe those who have walked the halls there realized that. Thanks for sharing your finding Motts!

Chapel

Violent Ward

Julia

Kind of a bad color for a violet ward, no? It seems like it'd make a whole lot more sense to put a calming color, like light blue, in a ward where people actually NEED to be calmed down. it's like the walls are mocking the patients...

The Exit

Julia

It looks so sad, like it's been waiting there for someone to come get it....

Emptied

Julia

This picture amazes me. It reminds me of Greek ruins. The collumns and all. The shattered glass reminds me of the diamond sprinkles I put on the cupcakes I make at my bakery in Houston. Truly inspiring Mott.

Drug Room

Julia

It appears from my research that my great-great-grandmother was a patient at this hospital. I really appreciate being able to learn a little more about it. Thanks for the website. She is found on a 1870 census record in this hospital. If you had not placed the pictures and info here, I would have never known what it looked like or a little more about it.

Staircase

Julia

It seems to be one of those places where you feel a strong sense of deja vu. All I can think of when I see this are dreams.

Bleakness

julia

these are all so awesome. i live near kppc so i go as often as i can and i love it, i have yet to get in a good deal of the buildings but i think this summer i will.
also, good news- the company that was going to demolish all of it backed out and now nothing is going to happen to any of the buildings until at least 17 years from now.
