Spokane, WA

I live in a strange part of the city: condemned flophouses and high-end condos (constructed from the bones of other tenements) rub shoulders, as hipster yuppies and transient meth addicts fight for dominance over the neighborhood.
This building had been slated for condofication, but now stands doubly ruined: bedraggled by years of disuse, now left gutted by construction crews. I couldn't get in (the doors are very well boarded), but the anonymity of "HOTEL" caught my eye anyway.

A clarification. The Camarillo State Hospital started closing down wards in the late 1980’s. The hospital was closed down completely in the 1990’s.
