<![CDATA[Forbidden Places]]> Commentics <![CDATA[Forbidden Places]]> 16 16 Maria Hi,

I'm currently writing a book about Sea View and the nurses who worked there. I'm looking to talk with anyone who worked there, was a patient or knew anyone who was a patient. Please contact me through my website: www.seaviewtbstories.com.

Thanks,
Maria

Since it is a children's hospital, it was located as far as possible from the TB sanatarian, expecially since Sea View had a couple hundred acres of land.
Hope this clears up your querie.
Rock, R.N.

]]> Mon, 28 Mar 2011 23:56:00 +0200 item_8463 lordradish I was there last year. Just to be clear, it was a regular children's hospital, not a mental hospital. The TB hospital is in the four older abandoned buildings across the street from this one.

]]> Mon, 27 Dec 2010 21:47:00 +0100 item_8159 Nick How does one get to the Childrens Ward? I'm sure you can't just drive in through the front gate. Is there a path or something? Also, is there other abandonments on the property? I know that the place is still in operation, and security is everywhere after the break-in. Thanks! Love the photos!

I think Staten Island...

Best,

]]> Tue, 13 Oct 2009 19:46:00 +0200 item_4743 Jenny Just wondering exactly where this is. Im a photo student in new york, and very interested in abandoned places to take pictures in and im drawn to this place.

]]> Sat, 01 Nov 2008 19:31:00 +0100 item_2797 Craig It is not a small straight jacket in the one photo. It is a sling for a "hoyer" lift. A mechanical device where the patient is placed on the canvas. The four corners of the canvas are attached to the hoyer lift. The patient can then be lifted from one area and placed in another if they are not mobile themselves. Awesome photos though!

]]> Sun, 05 Oct 2008 00:24:00 +0200 item_2650 Andrew Simply stunning images, and as a dedicated urban explorer myself, I think your choice of subject matter is extremely good.

]]> Thu, 21 Aug 2008 21:52:00 +0200 item_2468 Tabitha These pictures are amazing! Very unique. I wish such an amazing place wasn't so far up north.
I can't stop looking through these photographs.

You definitely have my ten!

]]> Sat, 05 Jul 2008 05:27:00 +0200 item_2271 Kvlt Rather disturbing, but so interesting.
I have to visit this place, some day.

]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 15:23:00 +0200 item_2162 Tim If your going to visit I sugest that you better be prepared. First of I have visited there several times. The whole place is pretty spooky so everywhere is pretty cool to see. Be careful going up on the upper floors the wood gives in a whole lot. Bring flashlights, long sleeves, pants, tough boots, and alcohol for imediate disinfection if cut. Also cooperate with the hospital security if they see you. Its private property.

]]> Tue, 06 May 2008 16:50:00 +0200 item_2054 b in going to visit. anyone have advice on finding the "best" parts?

]]> Sat, 03 May 2008 03:52:00 +0200 item_2034 Drew This is perhaps the most curiously engaging script I have come across in some time. I have searched the web and except for a personal blog tag it appears to be original. I can see this line working well in film. I must add, to tag it in this place is a true waste of talent and I wish I had seen it elsewhere.
Any reflections ?

Mad Children!!!

]]> Wed, 17 Oct 2007 03:16:00 +0200 item_1374 Mark The "small straight jacket" in the picture is NOT a straight jacket. It's a lift pad used for patients who were either too sick, or too crippled to get up on their own. The patient could be lifted and weighed, his bed changed or transferred to a stretcher or bathing station. The straps in the previous picture hook onto the pad at one end while the o-ring is hooked to an overhead jack. Two of these straps, one per side are required. Such pads were in use in hospitals in Canada until replaced with more high tech, motorized lifts within the last 5 years.

]]> Thu, 11 Oct 2007 00:42:00 +0200 item_1358 Brandon Where did the line "I taste like the dreams of the mad children' come from?

]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2007 09:54:00 +0200 item_1354 jezzer One of the most haunting UE series I have seen.

]]> Sun, 26 Jun 2005 05:48:00 +0200 item_56 Lorri Kennedy Fantastic line: I taste like the dreams of the mad children"...I love it.

]]> Sat, 28 Aug 2004 04:24:00 +0200 item_229 jeff seaview was a TB sanatorium i don't believe it was ever a childrens hospital?

]]> Sun, 27 Jun 2004 05:13:00 +0200 item_600 mike i'm going there next week

]]> Sat, 26 Jun 2004 12:20:00 +0200 item_661 radman53 It's so heartbreaking to think children would need a place like this. The pics are really fantastic
