JHC! My brain is confused! It's not too bad, because it's a very small brain, but still - my angles went haywire with this shot - it's great!

Very much a prison.

I like the bridging extending from the rails to the wall.

i love this. the floor especially catches your attention
the amount of peeled paint in the open space fading to none in the covered space is very cool

It's the main bloc either 6th or 1st tier. I was doing time here when the riot occured in the early eighties. I was a shit hole then and looks like it still is...
