My parents and I were on our way to Mount Rainier National Park and we stopped by an abandoned house!

Based on the stuff I found lying around, my guess is the house was abandoned in 1993.

“Abandoned”

Miniature set - Foam core, brass tubes, paint, etc.

This miniature is dedicated to the patients of the Ladd School in Exeter, Rhode Island. Opened in 1908, The Ladd School was essentially a place where infants, children and people of all ages with mental and physical disabilities were brought and forgotten. A lot of the patients did not belong there, however; homosexuality was once considered a disease by many. The neglect, the abuse, the overcrowding, the unsanitary conditions, and the corrupt practices by uncertified nurses and staff became exposed to the public in the 1970s, which eventually led to the closing of the Ladd School. The buildings that remain have been unoccupied since 1994. 

a miniature of an abandoned hospital i made for my 3-D illustration class!

still not done though—I need to include the mini wheelchair, bring in a little bit of natural light, and add a light haze…and then take the photo with my canon instead of my iphone! i’ll upload that in a day or two
