The Rockwood Lunatic Asylum was an active psychiatric facility was active from 1859 to 1997. It is the site where many atrocious events of cruelty were witnessed and a stands as a sobering reminder of how mental illness used to be 'treated'.
I went to this place last week, during a decently miserable day (weather wise), and captured these two images. Hopefully they are gloomy enough. I have color versions of these as well. I had trouble deciding on which versions I thought were better. Let me know if you want to see the colored versions.
1) The Scenic View.
