Last Stand

Thank-you, Motts! Was Hellingly one of the asylums they were to tear down? I heard that they were knocking them down as quickly as you vacated them!

Rain

To me, this is the best one. I love the "Lovecraftian" feel it gives me. It's beautifully surreal.

Weeping

Ahhhh. My second favorite shot in this gallery. The tree really sets off the buildings, and the storm clouds.

An ironing board that has its own house. What won't they think of next!

Gleam

The carpet is in such great shape compared to the rest of the area, it seems so out of place.

Geister

I am in agreement. It's so pristine, it doesn't even look like it belongs with the other photos.

Motts, are the plants silk, or are those veggies that are coming in from outside?

Must have been a pretty bad train ride, to welcome the odor of mold, eh, Motts?

Wish I knew what the hell it was. I could use the fifty bucks.

Take care of yourself, Andy. I hope you recover quickly. I know they're harsh.

Sketch, you want to hang a couch on your wall? Hope you have some pretty big toggle bolts.

Cooler

ratio, which part of PA are you talking about? When I last worked in a CLA in the Pittsburgh area, it was state-funded at the time, and was also state-inspected. As for client abuse, I have no doubt you're correct that not everyone followed the "no abuse" rule, but if anyone in the company I worked for got caught, or was even expected of abuse, investigations were initiated, and people did get fired.

Grifspop!!! Where have you been, man?

How many photos you have on this site, Motts? We know they're all yours. Why the hell would you steal one photo when you've probably got thousands to choose from? Does anyone realize NoX is in the word obnoxious? I like YOUR color version, too, Motts!

Sara, thanks for the information. What a shame that they are destroying everything. To have such beautiful architecture lying in the dust makes me very sad, indeed.

Love the contrast between the vibrant life on the outside and the decay on the inside.

Looks like a lamb to me. It's amazing how damaged walls can show different pictures to different people.
