Riverview Scouting!
Well, we went to Riverview Hospital today, a long-care psychiatric unit comprised of several extensive wings, specializing in geriatric and adult ward care. Here are a few of the breath-taking and elemental visions we ensnared.
(Near the H.E.P. Building with an abandoned cafeteria)
Similar spot with the sun brushing over the polaxed tops of trees.
Sweet little passage, leading eventually toward a major highway joining North Vancouver to Coquitlam.
This was the inside of an abandoned security building, right behind the bus stop.
I found the flora positively delightful.
Wha! Steam bath!
Stairs leading onto new territory.
One of the cottages, previously used by medical staff in the earlier 20th Century, who actually lived on site for their patients' well being, but is instead sometimes occupied by semi-independent and manageable patients. We saw Christmas pillows, decorated in holly designs in one of the windows to prove this fact. Sweeping generalization, yes, but an apt one too.
The entrance of a terribly demonstratively colonial complex, mainly used for administration purposes methinks. Nigh palacial I say.
Here's Grey by the brook upon entrance to the Hospital's gardeners' wing, which we came across, maniacally tired from trudging too far after we didn't take the bus far enough *mumbles bitterly* corrupted transit directions.
