Museum Hall

Museum Hall

The entire first floor was like stepping into a museum... all sorts of equipment filled the halls, much of it pretty old. This wing was abandoned in the 70's, before computers and other similar electronics really hit the market, so most of this stuff was outdated for 30 years ago, and left here.

This is the point where you probably shit yourself, no?
once again..tres cool shot, but the ceilings look a bit uneasy...
Everything else does look very solid
RUMMEGING TIME!!!! HE HE!!!!
Motts, was there any electricity in any of these buildings?
Nah, the power was cut from the wards a long time ago... administration had power, heat, and working phone lines until 2001, I think (one of the reasons why that building is in such good shape).
it looks as though the place remains pretty pristene how long after "gatherings" did you take these shots? there really is a LOT of stuff in there,I think more than any other place I have been.
What creeps me out is the paint peeling off the walls in a lot of these old places. Bet there's a lot of lead in it, too.
Antique Heavan!
wow if it had all those antiques somebody could make a killing i am sure! ok maybe not sure, but hopeful? lol
Guess I spoke too soon. Here's where all the stuff is.
ok, If the power was cut, why is the light on down the hall to the left?
Oh, my email is teganmalk@gmail.com I would love to hear from you Mr Motts about the light being on with no power. thank you
it could just be natural light tegan
garage sale anyone??
I wish I had the means to go around and purchase places like this just to rescue the "stuff" left inside.
I know what you mean, eldokid, maybe set up a museum with all the things. Show what it was like during the era these places were open & what patients & staff used in the day to day life in them.
