The green building in the background is the most visible structure on the North-East side of town, and beyond it- if you ever go cycling in the fields outside Łódź, be sure you will never get lost as long as you can still see The Hospital.

It's notorious. It has been under construction since 1975. In the late eighties, progress slowed due to many things- money was redirected elsewhere, resources were lacking...
Many floors were left unfinished, empty, haunting.

They finally opened up part of it last year, but it is not yet finished. A ghost hospital. I wish I'd thought of creeping inside earlier; now it's probably neither as interesting nor as easily accessible.
