I work with the mentally handicapped and looking at this place kind of puts it in perspective why they have some of the behaviors that they do. These pics are awesome, you did a GREAT job capturing the errie essence of this place.

why do you feel you have the right to paint on things or on buildings that are no yours? How would you feel if someone did that something of your?

I agree with Kim. Vandalism is just plain stupid plus it's illegal.

W-6 has a long history. At one time the "East Unit" relocated there. It was last occupied by the SMRU who moved there from C-8,9&10 in the summer of 1988. Last patient left in February 1989.

W-6 was known as the "senile ward" at one time. It housed the older patients with dementia (inc. alzheimers) along with its twin building, W-7.
