The contraption in the hall here seems to be a scale for patients who could not stand up.

It's neat...you can see where older light fixtures were anchored BEFORE the drop-tile was added at a later time (to save on the heating bill presumably).
Looks like a big white chair giving a little blue chair a ride.
This is one of the first pix I have ever seen where I get a Stephen King thought about the furniture being alive and mobilizing independently. Maybe I need more sleep . . . .
The drop down ceiling just breaks my heart. How can people just do this to save a few bucks. If I had been a patient here, I would have felt closed in.

Lynne - this is the second remark about 'creepy' you have made in this gallery. You are starting to scare me!
Gotta be lack of sleep . . . . .
that chair is just used for weighing people even if you can walk cause they still have them nowadays as i used one
Wait didn't we see something similar, older, in one of the other European galleries?
I must be used to seeing the American standard scale that you stand on...

Yup, there was an older model at St Margaret's Hospital.
Bingo! I knew it looked kinda familiar! Thanks for the refresher!
Lynne, it's a scale......
I was thinking of you!
~~No static at all~~
:-)
Nice photo, it makes me think about life =|
That's the same vehicle that Jack Black rode on in Nacho Libre.
For a dropped ceiling they really didn't drop it very far... Looks like it is only 1-2 feet lower and still creates a 12' ceiling. That wouldn't have made a difference in heating or cooling.
