I'd want to look through all those files, but as soon as I opened one I would remember that I can't read Italian.

That "buzzer" looks more like a curtain rod holder to me.

MC Escher comes to mind here.

Why is there a drain on the floor? Could there have been a sacrificial alter in here once?

I say it was a shower room. Look at the size of the soap dispenser on the ceiling!

Creeping Stain

@MomPink I wonder if the windows were open for the past 13 years. If so, that's a huge part of the mold issues.

@MomPink I think the bed is standard issue, it's the room that's so big, and possibly the technique used to photograph the picture.

That tile plagued the building I work in before they remodeled. The government being the government painted the ground floor doors and trim that same green as a reminder of the old walls.

Strange, sharps containers are red in the States. Medication waste goes in yellow bins

I like that shot. The round windows add a nice touch.

Mortuary

Voltor

It looks like a Ganster building. Ganster was a prominent architect in Waukegan Illinois, who designed the TB hospital off Belvidere Rd. It is now a Lake County Health Department building.

LucieLou, that makes perfect sense! Thanks for looking that up! nick, that is a really creepy but very cool poem. Very Lovecraft-ish. Or maybe Poe.

Love the floor! Is that carpet or tile?

That blue is much more tasteful than the pink seen in American asylums.

Is that Latin? It would surprise me if it was Italian due to the age and original purpose of the structure
