Sanatorium Lemaire,Tuberculosis.

Hey all,

These are some quite old pics I took a while back of the TB Sanatorium, Joseph Lemaire in Belgium whilst out there visiting a relative.
Ironically even though this place would rate as one of my favourite locations (the woods that surround the building are amazing), I hardly have that many pictures to show for it.
The atmosphere here is so peaceful you could almost fall asleep...almost!:thumb

...and an artwork i did of one of the external recreation wings

Faultless pictures, as usual
Its amazing how you can make buildings look so attractive, well done

Saul, the summertime is perfect to visit Lemaire.Once you're done exploring and admiring you can retreat to the rooftops for a beer and a sun-bath its so therapeuticI dunno when work will begin on it but they will have to start on it sooner rather than later.
Heres a link to a site someone has made called save the sanatorium.http://www.flickr.com/photos/miedo/
They've made an awesome graphic out of the building on the home page too.

Thanks Urban, this 1 didn't need much help it oozes charm
