Editor’s Note: After publishing Shadowbat’s photo essay on Mt. Sinai Hospital, contributor Chandra Lampreich sent us her own photos. Extra bonus: a vintage 2006 Philly skyline taken from the top of the mount. Lampreich’s photos, like Shadowbat’s, were taken in 2006. For more on the vacant Mt. Sinai, click HERE.
