I dont think being hosed down sounds that horrible. I live in India and bathe myself with cold water from a bucket. Trust me, it wouldnt take much coaxing to have me stand in one of those stalls for a nice hot hosedown. anytime. I WOULD prefer more privacy.... but like others have mentioned... my high school shower-room... and the typical YWCA shower room doesnt have much more privacy than this.

very steampunk. I love it. I want those doors. When they tear these places down they dont even sell the architectural pieces like doors. That is perhaps the biggest waste of all. They could preserve SOME of it.... but seldom do.

sure guys..... just pick it up and carry it home. Do you know how much that thing weighs? and its value as a pool table is virtually nil. It was a second rate model from the biginning... and in its current condition definately not worth restoring. On the other hand, as a piece of abandoned asylum memorabilia... it probably has a fair amount of value. Still short of finding a moving company to go get it..... its staying right where it is... forever.

it would be so cool to see a time lapse video of that wall from the time this building was abandoned till today

glad they have it up on pallets..... otherwise it might get rusty or rot before someone uses it again

I should like to print up some signs like this one and the "psychiatric chemistry" lab one as well as the mentioned "experimental patients waiting room" and see who would buy them.... also i should by some little coolers and put biohazard stickers on them.... and see if they would sell.

i agree about the picture of the legs. ( I see its to pictures.... but the layout is so strange) it looks like his legs have been dnapped.... like what Kathy Bates did to that dude in MISERY

the tiles are red with bloodstains from the poor souls tortured here by callous and uncaring workers.

hah! just kidding. ( fooled ya?)

how sad to me that places like this are lost forever due to carelessness and negligence. Such beautiful and spiritual artistry destroyed by idiots.... sigh. Thanks for this gallery motts
