I've done a lot of exploring all over the country, but up until this week I had not explored a major state hospital. Now I understand the elitism of the Northeast. We just simply don't have this type of architecture and history in Texas. And definitely not in such a concentration as up north. I have not even gone through all my pictures yet, but I wanted to share a few. Enjoy.

You did find the morgue right? And this one building is nothing compared to our whole campuses up here.

Wow, those are some really impressive shots! I'd love to go to a place like that. I really like the color scheme of the hospital, though I think it'd be pretty hideous if the paint wasn't peeling.

I am most intrigued by the suitcases. A while back I had come across a page where a person had documented the contents of long left behind suitcases from a mental hospital. It was one of the more emotional sets of photos that I had come across.

Had those suitcases in 10 & 11 anything in them I would have spent most of my time photographing the contents.


Link to a similar article, though this is not the one I stumbled across years ago, it is along the same vein.

Thanks for sharing, loved the pics! I also have not heard of sites like this down here in Texas. I'm sure there are some out there somewhere.

Great set! I'm in love with the luggage photos too! My curiosity would have had me opening every one of them!

How is this even 'exploration'? It's a loving house you've already been in you weirdo!

Nice photos man. Along with most people in this thread I think those suitcases look awesome. Being the snoop that I am I'd have definitely gone through and opened them up for photographing. Stuff like that is just so cool.
