Ho-leeeeee.. Where the hell is that? Can we all live there?
My word- it's amazing!
Gorgeous photographs, as always darling..

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

we can all live there, if we are willing to live in the chichi condos that this gorgeous place is being turned into, unfortunately. Of course, I was entertaining the same thoughts as you while wandering the halls and stepping out on the sunlit rusty balconies...

thank you for these pics, they're beautiful!

Stupid chichi condos...

[dfordoom.livejournal.com]

I love the one you've labelled gothica. And the chapel!

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

You always get really amazing colors. And I think I like the bathtub one the best, composition-wise.

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

well, the colors are definitely adjusted in editing the pictures. But they are all there in the old walls and the old furniture, I just need to bring them out. Old buildings do have very particular colors...the pale green, the deep raspberry red, the institutional colors from the 70s that I hate in active places, but love in abandoned ones.

So... is it for sale?

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

the hotel? It's already been sold/bought and is going to be turned into luxury condos.

[annabelle.livejournal.com]

wow. that place is amazing. is it still accessable?

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

sort of...but it's not a day trip. it's an overnight trip at least.

[annabelle.livejournal.com]

ok

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

if it had been local, I would have invited you along :)

if you are really interested, yes, you could see it for another couple of weeks, and I could put you in touch with the right people for that, but it is in Philadelphia...

Ahhh! The colors in yours are amazing! Mine are all a little washed-out looking. And I was having white balance issues with all the sun coming through the windows. But yours are gorgeous! I'd been itching to see them! :)

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

thanks! And I did some color-correction in photoshop :)

[bulletsandbones.livejournal.com]

I love all those window shots, and the colours i that long hallway shot are simply amazing

Off-topic, where/what is this icon from?

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

I totally don't know; I found it...I think I came across it while browsing through one of the icon communities on lj; I like it...I might make it my default one.

Oooh - so many great architectural features and So Many TEXTURES!

Lovely stuff, m'dear, as ever!

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

merci!

Fascinating and beautiful. Damn shame they're becoming chichi condos.

very beautiful, thank you! especially the mirrors and chapel details. a host of treasures for the pink eyed viewer...

If Hopper had only had a camera: "rear view"

And "mirror 1.0" may haunt me, eternally.

Thank you.
