Perspective

I really like the linear style of this one. It seems surreal, like a gingerbread house or something. Also, the addition of the black and white make even the plants look fake, like frosting.

awesome shot one of the best galleries yet ..

I remember playing in thease yards as a child. Funny when I think of it now, you would have thaught I owned the place. I know I thaught I did.

Fantastic!!!

I work daily within a couple hundred feet of this place and I see live from my vantage point the destruction of the buildings.

brad sound like u have some good memories at least. this must be hard for u since u had a connection to the place. god bless

I finally can place this view. Most likely on or near the roof of the Rehab center. That was a part of the hospital that had been very recently renovated (Multi million dollars spent) Also it was the last department I worked in at Danvers . I started 2 months before it closed' Also where I officially met my lovely wife . She was the department computer geek.

From the exterior (except for the boarded up windows) it almost looks like it could still be used, like it's just waiting for the next shift to arrive. I'm just discusted by the waste of its destruction.

i dont know you n i just found your page doing research on something else but i love all the pics angles colors shadows but i hope and pray u were at these places with more than yourself !!!!

very beautiful picture ive spent more than one occasion on and in the buildings of danvers state i once made the mistake of going alone to prove that i was not so full of fear i left that place running for refuge that place is not joke nor are the spirits that once lived there that still roam the halls its to bad they tore it down i really loved the architecture
i would never want to live on that hill trust me its cursed you can count on strange things happening to the poor folks that will soon inhabit that hill
good luck to all that move there just remember you walk in the place of many torn and lost souls

I can't truly speak to to the hauntedness of theold Danvers State. Growing up I heard all the stories. I know my dad checked out footsteps in the attic, on more than one occasion in the B and A buildings. (security normally didn't go there). I never had anything I could chalk up as paranormal happen to me in 16 years of the night shift. However I always had the feeling of not being alone in many spots within the Kirkbride building, when I was physically by myself.. The Bonner building was also haunted by most accounts,. especially in the basement, where the morgue was. Even when the place was active it was a dark and very spooky place to be.

I wonder how much rotting food is in that bin. All I can say is ALOT

That one unboarded window. It's almost like an eye, looking out on the world.

an eye to the soul of the building! may it rest in peace
