Reminents of it once being a hospital are slim.
Man this pic look's mad cool, I wish i could go in there.
Thats so beautiful!
Such an amazing photo...I wish I could have been there in the time of its "glory".
But only if you had received the proper vaccinations in advance, right?
More or less!
I do loathe needles, though...
All I can say is WOW! You really can't even tell where anything was.

I have a bizarre fascination with Renwick, even though I've never seen it in person (I've never even been to NYC). This photo is great; I love the contrast of the wildness and overgrowth surrounding by the crumbling walls of the hospital's shell. Very nice.
I'll stop fooling around now Motts, you're my best friend now!!!

Is that snow I see?

Those seem like steel structures to keep this building alive, just like you Motts for inmortalizing it!
Kudos for getting inside! I went to the ruins a couple of months ago, but in broad daylight and the police cruiser was there so i didnt have the guts to get inside...i didnt even get to see the back of the place, does the fence go all the way around?
I'd have never have guessed that this was a hospital
i went last weekend with a friend, but we got caught about to go over the fence, so we were worried about jumping the fence cuz so many security/police people were driving around at the time. we're planning on going back in the future though
There's no there there!
IT IS AS CLOSE AS I WOULD EVER BE TO MY GRAND MOTHER. SHE DIED OCTOBER 31, 1924. I WONDER HOW WELL CARE FOR SHE WAS .I
