This puts me in mind of several of your other psychiatric hospital galleries. I really love the feeling and mood of these.

How is there so much dirt on these floors? I don't remember the other sites being this bad... I'd be sweeping in there for weeks!

It's just like walking outside barefoot, a little dirt and glass will never hurt you.

I think I might need a hand for this one... A few shovels, someone running the dirt out in a wheelbarrow, then a few brooms and mops, we should have it cleaned out in a few days. Plenty of time for a tree and decorations. What are ya gettin me? :D

Just put a couple of rugs down and keep everything under the rugs.

I dunno, I think it would bug me too much knowing that dirt was under the rugs...

The archway is so awesome as well as the reflection of light dancing in a downward motion. I can picture myself sitting in that sunny room, among other mental patients, maybe reading a grand old novel! What thrill!

It look like it were taken from an odd nightmare.

this archway is stunning. I like how the light's reflection off the wall is waning and soon to be faded from view. It is sad in a way, just like some of the yesteryear patients, some fading from view in time.

I don't think it's dirt, but rather stuff from the rotting ceiling and peeling walls

But it is BEAUTIFUL!!! Architects + builders of this had ideas and visions of beauty and meant well. How was anyone to know it would turn out differently? How well you have captured the sagacity and craftmenship of the creators. May you always be well is my daily wish.
