Framed

I am so glad you got new pictures on here i have been looking at your pictures for a long time and i think they are the coolest pictures i have ever seen. Thank you for having the coolest website. Your pictures and the history and everything is just awesome. Thank you Motts.

Oh the art deco architecture of this building is stunning! And the way the ivy has grown on the side and that sea-like ivy is so cool!

I love the brick-work. I hope the brambles wasn't too hard to get past.

It is just breathtaking and I love your discription of your first sight of this.

Love the shape of the building

always happy when Mr Motts posts something new

*cracking knucles & settling in for the tour*

Oh, yeah! A new set!

The brickwork already looks to be incredible.

Incredible Motts! What beautiful brickwork!!

Yay! New pictures. Nice treat to start the weekend. What a great building. Tony C. above beat me to it...great brickwork. Imagine how much that would cost to have done these days. I'm off to look a the rest of 'em :-).

New month - new pictures - Yes!

I been to this place before it is so so cool to walk around.

Yes!!!! North Brother island!!!! WooHoo!
I hoped you'd get here some day.

Hey Motts. I'm not sure if you can answer this because of the comment rules, but how did you get onto the island? Do you have a boat or is there a ferry or something that takes you there?

Wow. It's like discovering the ruins of a temple in an urban jungle.

Hi Motts: Always great to see new pictures posted by you. Esp for the Holiday weekend. Now you have 100 sites posted cool. I've looked at some ...not sure how many now maybe over 10 or so? I still have a long way to go so to speak. Hope you post more in the coming months. I'm so happy you didn't get caught ....Nice pictures already. Can't wait to see the rest of them. Thanks for sharing and all of your hard work. I really love the history that you add about these places. Other sites need to take note...this is how to post a web site and the comments section really makes it more special for all of us to tell how we feel about it all. Thanks Motts!! : )

Hey ! Chris You get there with a boat. Do you get it.

I get that you take a boat. I understand it's an island. My question was is there a boat service or do you need your own personal boat

You can take your own Personal Boat Chris to the Island.

So glad you've put this new gallery up. I look every day to see if you have. You take the best pictures!!! More soon, please?

It seems like everytime I go out of town for a weekend, I come home to a new gallery... I wonder if I should maybe start taking more trips, lol

yay!!! new pictures! a great way to start my vacation early ^^

awsome stuff ........ i am inspired to pick up a camera.......

you are amazing. i hope this work takes you so far. you truly have an eye for this. i love seeing all of this. thank you!!

Brother Island

Ack, what a close call with the coast guard! Good thing you didn't capsize and lose any equipment.

Great shot, with the way the ivy frames everything.

WOW, WHAT A GREAT BUILDING!

I love this picture, how the greenery frames this beautiful & intricate building. I also really enjoyed reading about the history of this place and Typhoid Mary.

I was relooking this photo over. I love the way the foilage has taken over the building, especially at the entrance. Looks like skinny arms reaching out beckoning you to come in and look around. Very amazing.

The art deco architecture and the tapestry brick design are amazing. I wonder if anyone has those skills now days...

This is the most beautiful building that I have seen thus far in your gallery.

Man, I haven't been back here for a while now...RL sucks! What a pleasure to come back to so many new galleries!

YAY!

These photo's are so beautiful, I find it wonderful that a photographer such as yourself has turned what the world see's as being ugly, into something so vividly beautiful. I can not wait to see more work from you.

I was a "patient" in Riverside in the late 1950's when it was the only "treatment" program in the U.S. (and maybe the world) for adolescent heroin addicts. Most patients wre court-mandated, and after a study showed not a single "cure" in a decade, it was shut down in 1963. It is weird to see the views I haven't seen for half a century, and remember all the guys I knew who have since died, many from their addiction.

I can't get through... it saw access denied, well i am at school, maybe i'll try again when i get back home...well at my somewhat foster home

ive seen this place before, real close to home , jerom and 179
