Empty Patient Room

Empty Patient Room

The hospital was constantly being renovated and added on to; here you can see a more modern room where there are cubes instead of barred windows to let the light in.

Whoa, Mr. Motts: this was a room?? Looks like the end of a hallway! Do tell what is with the window within a window? Era's are different : So what is your take on this?

I'm not going swear that this happened, but I believe that I got laid in this room for the sheer hell of it. This even scares me.

This truly is an awesome site devoted to preserving a crucial piece of forgotten history. Well done and kudos! I would love to see more of these types of portraits.

Have you considered studies on other defunct state hospitals, (there are many) perhaps a book?
