For this #monochromemonday post: Building 93 at the former Kings Park Psychiatric Center, a defunct New York State-run psychiatric hospital on the North Shore of Long Island that was open from 1885-1996. This particular building was a patient ward building, 13 stories tall, and built from 1939-1940, and opened to patients in 1941. It was vacated for good in 1992, a few years ahead of the complete closure of the hospital campus but by then, only the first four floors were actually being used. Utilities (water, electric, heat, etc.) were shut off in 1993 and the building has been left to rot ever since. #monochrome #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #decay #urbandecay #abandonedplaces #derelictstructures #derelict #abandoned #abandonedbuilding #modernruins #ruins #urbex #lefttorot #architecture #architecturalphotography #gothic #scary #haunted #longisland #newyork #asylum #hospital #photography #fujifilm #fujixt3 #tamron #tamron18300f3563
Back from a short trip to the UK! And while I'm sifting through the photos I took there, ehre's another one from the abandoned police headquarters in Frankfurt.

Can't help it, it gives me Wes Anderson vibes.

Can't stop, won't stop! Although there's a light at the end of the tunnel at least. ;)

Aaaand one more!
I love how moss is growing on the pieces of panelling that have fallen off the ceiling. It's such an odd thing to see - nature's slowly taking over, but it's somehow still confined to those symmetrical, unnatural shapes for the most part.

Another one from our trip to the former police headquarters in Frankfurt. Those are the remnants of the petrol station they operated in the inner yard of the building complex.

There'll certainly be a couple more photos in the coming days. :)

An abandoned mortuary building in the grounds of the former Gartloch Hospital in the east of Glasgow. Constructed in the 1890s, this simple, but rather elegant, church-like building was designed in a French Renaissance style by Thomson and Sandilands. The hospital closed in 1996, and while a number of its buildings have been converted into housing, this one has, so far, been left to decay.
